Well, not really pong as you do not play against the computer or another player.

you play against yourself basically

I enjoyed this, even though the two dimensions melted my brain! It got hard quickly though, maybe a bigger ball would make it a bit easier on the old noggin :)

Even though it's just pong with a twist, it has some nice details to keep things fresh. Nice! :D

Lots of style, but not much else. I guess you win at minimalism. :j

This is a cool idea, I think it would have been much more juicy with a couple of sound effects

This game is deceptively hard, in a good way ;). A simple concept but quite tricky because you have to think about where the ball is going to go next and line up two paddles at the same time (especially when the ball is going into a corner). Although it can be quite annoying when the ball bounces off one of the small paddles when it's right near the edge and you don't have time to react.

The game was quite fun but I wish it could have been polished up more. My best time was 48 seconds.

Can you upload this on Dropbox? That file hosting site looks sketchy.

Neat concept, the twist is interesting, the game is challenging. The basic color changes got style also. Too bad the game begs for sounds effects or some extra polish.

I am surprised no one did this before. A rather neat twist on pong and surprisingly difficult.

Cool twist on a classic game and the palette swaps were a nice touch.

Fun for a bit, felt like it could have used some more juicy elements but it's certainly minimalist to the core. The additional batons on the field made it more difficult, and that was pretty fun, it did feel like some kind of audio-based response for collisions would have helped in this game. Overall, pretty darned nice.
