The rockets stay after the end of a round, which can lead to collisions with an old rocket. Your particle effects rule!

It is a bit too complex for a party game though!
It is rather easy to get carried away by the planetary combat, forgetting that you also need to play pong! I really like the level of challenge involved in keeping tabs on two concurrent problems.
Good work adapting an old classic to the modern, *violent*, age! :ping_pong: :rocket: :boom:
I found it fairly difficult because of the multitasking aspect of it and hitting anything with the rockets seems like it's pretty much just based on luck. Maybe make those faster or give them a little bit of homing?
