If you look at Save Mary, which this game has some similarities to in
playfield usage, that game appears to represent graphics as both sprite and
playfield, where the falling brick is a blocky sprite and then it becomes
playfield.
Obviously the more static the playfield is the easier it is to program, but
I'm sure the challenge of moving the background around was part of Andrews
motivation for this game.
As it is I don't think a quad width ball would be fat enough to simulate
one of these tiles. And the sprites are accounted for.
As far as gameplay, it seems a little slow-paced for me. Is this as fast
as the tiles can be made to move or is it intentionally slow? I'm assuming
the latter.
