Strike or Break is a fast-paced, nerve-wracking bowling game where luck isn’t on your side. You play as Jack, a young boy with an unfortunate streak of bad luck, who struggles with uncontrollable nervous tics. As he attempts to bowl, the pressure of his failures begins to intensify his tics, creating a vicious cycle of frustration.

With only 2 minutes on the clock, your goal is to rack up as many points as possible. The more pins you knock down, the higher your score, but here's the twist: the more you fail, the harder it gets to control your nerves. As your anxiety builds, your ability to throw becomes even more unpredictable. However, if you manage to stay calm and make the right shots, you’ll be rewarded!

How to Play:

• Use the A and D keys, or the left and right arrow keys, to move Jack left and right.
• Hold down Spacebar to charge the power bar.
• Release the Spacebar to throw the ball.
• Knock down 7 or more pins to start a streak, giving you a points bonus.
• As time runs out, your tics get worse, making it harder to control the power bar and increase your anxiety.
• Stay calm and focus to avoid the vicious cycle of failure!

Can you overcome the pressure, or will the ticking nerves break you?
