It's not bad, but it's also way too simplistic to really keep you awake at night.

oh damn they got Mario in the cigarette spaceship

shit was intense. mf had me on the edge of my seat.

Damn, she wasn't lying, that was Alleyway (1989)!

I love how the cover art has Mario on it.
It plays like Brick Breaker or Arkanoid.

A monotonus breakout clone, each level takes what feels like forever to clear out, and mind you, there are whopping 24 of them! I think this game could've been faster in pace, and maybe had a background music to liven things up (the BG music is only present during bonus stage). One compliment I can give is a few gimmicks to make this a little more interesting, like wrapping blocks and blocks moving down with time, but it's not enough to save this game from being quite average.
