A downloadable game for Windows

An Arkanoid tribute to the golden age of the arcade.

Alkenoid brings back the pure Arkanoid arcade formula: a paddle, a ball, and a wall of bricks standing between you and the next screen. No tutorials, no progression systems, no timers — just reflexes, angles, and the stubborn conviction that this time you'll clear it.

Play solo, hand the paddle over in classic two-player alternating turns, or take the wall down together in tandem — two paddles, one screen.

Thirty hand-designed levels, and then the part the original never gave you:

The level editor

The Boss editor


Lay out your own brick walls, choose your tile sets and decors, drop in bonuses and monsters, and build your own bosses piece by piece. Save the whole thing as a set and play it like the campaign — or hand it to someone else and watch them suffer.

And level sets are easy to share — one folder, and your friends are playing your walls.

Built over the summer of 2026 as an homage to the block-breaking classics of the 1980s, and released free for the retro gaming community.
