Breakout

Breakout in Elixir using OpenGL. Largely an incomplete and poor port of https://learnopengl.com/In-Practice/2D-Game/Breakout.

Pre-emptive notes

The code is very bad. I'm working on improving it. Please feel free to suggest updates/changes, ideally with an eye towards how games can be implemented in the future (i.e., not just improvements to this breakout implementation, but game development in Elixir as a whole).

Launching

This implementation has no dependencies. The following should work (tested on modern macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows):

$ git clone https://github.com/harrisi/elixir_breakout
$ iex -S mix # or mix run --no-halt

Gameplay

A/D, H/L (hello, fellow vim users), or left/right arrows to move left/right, space to launch the ball, N to switch between levels, P to profile with tprof for ten seconds (if you're in to that).

There is no win condition.
