Great tutorial! I started building my own brick breaker game before watching your tutorial.
The thing that I got stuck with is the bounciness behavior. My ball has a circle collider and bricks naturally have a box collider.
The behavior that I want for collisions with bricks is to add speed but don't change the angle, simply invert velocity X or Y depending on where the ball hit (sides or top/bottom).
And PhysicsMaterial2D kind of does that, except that it changes the direction if the ball hits the edge of a brick or if it hits two bricks at once (between them).
Do you have any suggestions to fix that?

My ball won't bounce back after colliding with the brick. It just ram them down in one swap.
PS.: Nevermind. I just put this on the OnCollisionEnter2D and it worked pretty fine:
void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D other)-
--
if (other.transform.CompareTag(-Brick-))-
--
Debug.Log (-Colliding with a brick-);-
rb.velocity = new Vector2 (rb.velocity.x, -rb.velocity.y);-
Destroy(other.gameObject);-

How can i stop the ball when a level ends? the paddle stops moving but when a level is completed the ball will just continue to move. One scenario I had happen to me is that I had 1 life left and completed the level, and while in the level complete screen the ball hit the collision trigger in the bottom of the game, giving me a game over screen.

Longshot because I know the video is a few years old, but whenever my ball crosses the bottom collider it takes away ALL lives even if I change my total from 3 to 5. Ive doubled checked that UpdateLives is set to -1 and my GM script says lives += changeInLives so that its adding the -1 to that like you said.

some important time stamps:
-movement script for the paddle-
4:20 - 9:32
-script for setting the left and right screen edges-
11:19 - 14:14
-setting the paddle collider-
15:44 - 18:05
-adding rigid body and collider to ball-
19:40 - 21:11
-force script for ball-
21:39 - 23:31

Really appreicate a nice, long form video where you explain the logic in everything you are doing. Im 45 minutes in and i feel more comfortable with code and unity than i ever have with any other videos ive watched. thank you so much for taking the time to make a video such as this :)

Nice tutorial!!! One of the best of youtube!
I have a question, my ball keeps going horizontal all the time, and then i have to wait like 10 minutes, or more, to the ball change direction. Someone knows a fix to it? Thanks!

I just finished my first commercial game that I am releasing on steam in 2 weeks, and every time people ask me about programming I always recommend this tutorial. First I completed and it is just amazing. Thank you so much!
