How about mouse control?

I like this scene for 2 reasons:
A: It contains script. Script is alwaysy good because it means you put in work to delevop an advanced and quality scene
B: It's smooth and looks nice. Blinking upgrades, sliding level, all those are things I usually dont come up with.

Here are some tips for your future ideas and the current state:
Something minor i noticed is that you write {} ? {} : {}. The first {} can be ommited if it's only 1 line: scene.my.bloc == 0 ? {} : {}.
For your mousecontrol, I allowed myself to develop some beta code that you could use. Insert it into the panels poststep and remove the driving engine in return:
angle = angvel = 0;
app.mouserpos(0) < pos-5 ? {
vel = vel + [-105-vel(0),0]/x (replace x with some number to adjust accelleration. The smaller the faster it accellerates)
} : {app.mouserpos(0) > pos+5 ? {
vel = vel + [105-vel(0),0]/x (same as above)
} : {
vel = vel - [vel(0),0]/x (same as above, but slows the panel down to 0 if its close to cursor)
}
}
One type of powerup that I know is Ball trippling, i.e. the ball thaat hits the powerup suddendly turns into 3 balls flying in a spreading fasion. When you loose them, you dont loose a life unless it's the last ball.
As for different block types: Indestructible blocks, blocks that require 2 hits, blocks that are invisible before being hit, and require a second hit afterwards, blocks that move a bit when hit(perhaps downwards), blocks that change ball velocity etc. etc. there are many options for such things.
I look forward how you will continue this scene. If you have questions about anything that I just suggested or about scripting in general, feel free to ask here.
