Requires Windows Vista or above

Enjoy a Pong-like game with new features as well as new gameplay mechanics that make the game challenging and fun!

First, let's get the basics out of the way. Player 1 controls their paddle using W to move up, and S to move down. Player 2 uses the left joystick on a controller** to move their paddle up and down. When the ball isn't moving, press Shift on the keyboard or A on a controller** to make it move and start the game. First to get 21 points in a match wins!

Alrighty, let's talk features!

Got a buddy coming over to your house? Play with them in Local mode, where up to 4 players experience the chaos of the game on the same system.

Oh wait, you have no friends? No fear, because Computer mode is here! Play against a bot and see if you can outsmart it. If you don't like the regular difficulty of the bot, feel free to customize it with the Difficulty option.

Playing against someone in a different place? Try Online Multiplayer, where 2 players connect to a game and compete against each other.*

Looking to switch things up a bit? Try Battle Mode, where your goal is to AVOID the ball! Each paddle starts with 200 health points and loses health as the ball touches them, with the damage dealt depending on the speed of the ball. You can also take advantage of 4 power-ups that are collected when the ball touches them- A green plus that gives a small health boost to the paddle that last touched the ball, a thunderbolt that damages the paddle opposite to the one that last touched the ball, a gray collection of 3 downward arrows that temporarily slows down the ball and a multicolored circle that grants invincibility and removes collision from the paddle that last touched the ball for 7 seconds. The last one to have their health depleted wins!

Just to add a little bit of challenge, we made the ball change it's speed every time it touches the ground or a paddle! It can become really slow, or really fast, and occasionally something in between! (This behavior does not apply to Battle Mode)

Beware of the double-ball event, an occasional surprise that temporarily summons a second ball!

Currently this game is exclusive to Windows, but we're looking to expand to other platforms.

Enjoy our game!
