Breakout

Breakout is an pioneering video game engineered by Steve Wozniak for Atari in collaboration with Steve Jobs, who was employed there as a technician.

History
In early 1975, Jobs brought in his friend Wozniak to work on the circuit design for a game concept by Atari co-founder. It was released for arcades in May 1976. Jobs and Wozniak co-founded the Apple Computer Company that same year.

Easter egg in classic Mac OS
A hidden version of Breakout can be launched in System 7.5 by typing    into Note Pad. This easter egg was disabled in Mac OS 7.5.1, but can be re-enabled with some modification by ResEdit.

Brick for iPod
A clone of Breakout was included with early iPod models with Click Wheels or earlier controllers. On the first iPod model in 2001, it was activated as an easter egg by holding down the center button while on the About menu. With iPod Software 1.1, the easter egg was moved to the Legal menu. By the time iPod models with color displays were released, such as the 1st and 2nd-generation iPod nano, the game became an openly accessible feature named Brick. Starting with the 6th-generation iPod classic and 3rd-generation iPod nano in 2007, it was superseded by a similar game in a circular format named Vortex.

iOS version
An updated version for iOS is marketed by Atari as Breakout: Boost.
