Also, you answered the age old question of "How can we make Pong better?" For eons, a solution remained shrouded beneath societal boundaries and crooked politicians seeking only to restrain the truth. Until one righteous hero, Snarkusius, walked fearlessly into the wicked darkness only to return unscathed with an answer: "Babies."
I'm always down to play Pong with Babies.
It reminded me of the classic online blobby volley game (that I have spent way too much time playing with my friends in the past :P ) but with much better pixelart graphics and relaxing music instead of annoying whistle sounds. The way the baby spins while flying through the air does not only look hilarious, but also adds a whole new level of intensity because it makes the bounces more unpredictable. I also love those small details like the ghosts appearing when the baby touches the floor.
This is a game you can be really proud of, especially since it's one of your first games! I hope you keep enjoying game development and participating in game jams! I would also be really happy, if you checked out our game and tell us what you think :)

The game is quite nice but the players controls feel weird and it holds the game back. The music was nice but some sound effects would have made the game pop.
All in all a nice game with a cool spin on the theme.
