Builds a playable Breakout clone using libGDX and Kotlin, with a paddle, ball, and roughly a dozen brick types whose collisions remove bricks and score points. Uses libGDX batch rendering and sprite sheets for animation, adds a custom shader to manipulate image pixels for effects, and targets Android, iOS and desktop from the same codebase. Mentions memory and GC pitfalls and shows the game running successfully after optimizations.
