Very nice game. Collision can be very glitchy sometimes but other than that great job!

Sweet remake of the old classic game of pong. I love what you did with the dash, makes the game much more engaging, along with the addition perks on the sides! Overall Enjoyable game Sweet entry!

I really like this power-ups twist on simple pong mechanics. Great job!

Nice take on pong i really liked the unique power-ups, though i had a bug where the AI got a point for hitting the corner of my barrier.

Very cool. Awesome sounds. Can you see anywhere what the powerups do?

I somehow managed to push the "hard" AI offscreen behind the goal after some combination of powerups and ball movement. Then I won 10-0.

No you cant' see, you have to learn by yourself what powers up do^^.

This is pretty cool!

The dash is nice, especially since you can use it in any direction.

I did find the AI a little weak, and the collision detection was a little weird when I got up against the sides. If I dashed against the ball while against a wall, it would rocket around in a semi-random direction!

Nice-nice. Nice setting. But AI is pretty laggy ^)

An amusing alteration of a canonic gameplay. It would be great to enrich it with some random events

Nice game, I like the pickups and especially some of the sound effects and juice that comes with them. Sound-wise this game is top-notch, gameplay is also fun. AI seems to have a bit of a problem following the ball sometimes but that's only a minor complaint because I like winning :D

Silly game! A little glitchy, but I loved the concept!

Man, I love it. Really. The visual is so cool, and the idea is awesome. I love the ice gun, and the AI is pretty good, how did you do that?

The music sucks, but I think you already know that, once you disabled the sounds rating. I don't like the field for some reason I can't tell, Maybe the change in the colors, I don't know.

Would be really cool a full version of this, with physics and smoothness in the movement. Very good job!

Not sure what to say. Not my type of game, but I will rate it fairly none the less. Pretty well made, humorous air hockey style game. Overall nice.

For the AI its juste a fast prog, he move on function of the ball and there is a random variable to tell him to dash sometimes.
I'll make a fullversion with more level like ice level where it's more difficult to control the character., more powers, a better AI and i'll try to put online game.

Cool game :)
Maybe it would be more interesting if you have to pick up the powerups in our zone, to add some risk/reward mechanic!
I especially like the effect on the ball when we hit it and dash to the top or down on the same time.

Looks pretty polished! I like how the actual ball is a sheep. Haha. Also; this might be one of the only places where Comic Sans (or that other one, not sure which one it is) actually does it work! Like the pong twist and that you can move forward. Not very original, but it's simplicity at its best. Powerups are also really fun. Graphics are okay, nice job!

Nice game. As others already said the AI is a bit weak, even on Hard it wasn't really a challenge. But the powerups and the dash give it some variety and more engaging gameplay.

Awesome stuff! Very polished and professional. I like the powerups, particularly the one that extends your play area is pretty well done. My collision glitched out at times and the ball flew backwards into my own goal, but otherwise a cool game.

Nice little game, I really like the sound and art. Solid pong style game for sure, I like the addition of powerups. The collision with the ball the the shield is a bit weird though, I scored on myself a few times.

Great work! Sound effects got a bit repetitive, but the music was good. Took a bit of time to figure out what the powerups do (which made things a little easier for sure... mostly). I won on medium difficulty! So there's that

Very fun, I love that you can curve the ball. Maybe felt like it curved a bit too much though?

Sometimes it's confusing what do power-ups/downs do, and the sheeps' sound get a bit repetitive.

Graphics are pretty to look at, and gameplay feels right. Good job
