Breakout Game

Question

Re uploaded so that it starts the game. I have Fixed the block and levels problems updated a new version. The last problem is to check if the ball hits a corner, middle, left,right, top, or bottom of the bumper or blocks. Thanks for your time.

Well I need it on the blocks because if the ball hits the left right or corners it needs to send the ball the opposite directions and it needs to break the block which I already have working. The reason the ball does not disappear when it hits the bottom is because for testing it right now it was easier to just have the ball never disappear. I do have the code in the game I just commented it out for now.

With the bumper or bat as I call it the easiest way to check hits on different faces would be to assign 4 smaller rectangles to the 4 sides of the bat and check collision on those Why you need this on the blocks is puzzling to me Usually when the ball hits the bottom of the form it goes out of play

I should have made the form a different color but if you look closely there is a button on that transparent form its in the middle. if you click that button it will start the game. Sorry about that

Please check your code - it's not running correctly - all I get is a transparent form
