My first Codex prompt — a remake of the Brick Breaker game that came preloaded on old BlackBerry phones.

Context

The first project I ever prompted Codex with, I asked it to build a version of Brick Breaker, the game that came preloaded on every BlackBerry back in the day.

Arrow keys or A / D to move, Space to fire, P to pause, R to restart.
