Good to see another of the popular 1970s era games emulated.


> AND... well... rotated the wrong way

As for rotation issue, it's doing the upright cab emulation just like what Mr. F4brice's videoclip shows from his Breakout cab. Since DICE has no artwork support (monitor overlay piece uses striped color bars) compared to MAME, that's why no colors are present.

There's also the cocktail table variation. I am not sure if that requires its own specific handling when emulating the cocktail table hardware. I am guessing it will. I know that the artwork support will have to be handled differently between upright versus cocktail table models of Breakout.
