| - | '''Charas Breakout''' is a breakout game with physics, created by [[Gary Kertopermono]] and made in Flash. The purpose of the game is to break at least 50% of all the blocks before time has passed. There is also a Deluxe edition with some major improvements. The game was highly inspired by beta screenshots of the second installment of Earthworm Jim 2, as well as the Puppy Love levels, which were in the game.

| - | == The story ==
| + | <h1>CHARAS WILL BE DESTROYED!</H1> |
| | | | |
| - | Charas is in trouble. Because of the many bitmaps uploaded to Charas the server has become more full, and the bandwidth usage is higher than normal, and since [[Alex]] doesn't have much money this is troubling. On top of that, Alex gets sucked inside the computer.

| | | | |
| - | The game was made in the time when Alex posted a notification that Charas was in need of money, in order to keep Charas running. Some members figured out that using bitmaps instead of the smaller PNG and GIF files would cost Charas a lot of bandwidth. This turned out to be the base concept of a new game.

| - | You control Alex with the direction keys, and you'll need to bounce the helmet back up. The helmet breaks the blocks of the "bitmap", which gets "uploaded" as time passes. When the image is fully loaded or you'll break every block, the level ends, and you lose if there are more than 50% is still present.

| - | The original game was made in Macromedia Flash MX, and programming started in August 2004, and was released September 2nd in the same year. It had a total of 26 bitmaps. Further more, you could only play as Alex. The only power-ups present in the game were the Low-Grav Helmet, High-Grav helmet and Demonspeed. The latter gave the helmet an increased speed.
