Breakout 2000 - Mario Perdue Interview - A Forgotten Jag Gem?

I got the game as soon as it came out. Neat concept and fun game, but tons of slowdown. I was very disappointed at the time - 64-bit powerhouse couldn't do Breakout without slowdown?!?

 

Mario was a nice guy though. We spoke a little via emails, although I cannot find them now. Was probably 20 years ago.

In my top 5 favorites for the Jag. I probably still have the high score here, it's not played very much in the community. It's not all psychedelic like a Minter 2000 upgrade style gem, but it's still competent for a classic upgrade. It has good tunes, adjustable control speed, which is helpful since it doesn't support a real paddle, and nice graphics I think. I've also always loved the little droids as a mechanism for dropping powerups. Those little guys have character and seem to display attitude at times, teasing you with drops and then not delivering. Nice touch.
