This is a very simple version of Breakout written in C using libnx for the Nintendo Switch. This was a quick learning exercise to get acquainted with developing homebrew software on Nintendo's Switch game console.
You'll need a Nintendo Switch game console capable of running homebrew software. See the following links for more details:
First, install devkitPro, devkitA64, and the switch-dev package (see above links) and then clone and build the source:
git clone git@github.com:Justin-Credible/switch-breakout.git
cd switch-breakout
make
This will build a switch-breakout.nro file (among others) which can be copied to sd:/switch/ and launched via hbmenu.
Additionally, the nro can be loaded over the network using hbmenu's NetLoader functionality. This allows stdout to be shown on your computer. Start NetLoader on the Switch and then run:
nxlink -s switch-breakout.nro
