"Power-up" ideas

[a-r-t]

Many modern day zoomer-style brick breaker games have a concept of "power-ups" where breaking certain bricks can grant perks to the player for a set amount of time. Usually when the level is generated, a brick is determined at random to contain a potential power-up (often with an icon of some sort drawn on it to indicate to the player that it is a power-up brick).

Some example "power-ups" when a power-up brick is destroyed:

• bomb: does damage to all bricks surrounding it
• long: player's paddle is longer
• shoot: player can shoot a set amount of missiles that deal damage to bricks
• big ball: ball increases in size
• speed: paddle can move faster

Any and all power-up ideas are welcome.

This issue is not intended to be completed by one person or in one pull request -- it is going to remain open for a while to allow for multiple contributions. One developer is going to need to kick things off though by making the initial "system" for power-ups to work.

it would be splendid if you would allow for our prestigeous group to contribute to your repositorie, by allowing us to implement a power-up brick, in where when you break it it shall give a power up to the player.
