Toxic pong by CDKML

[raw]
made by CDKML for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

toxic<em>pong</em>Exe.jpg Toxic pong is an experimental game that gives a twist to the classic Pong game. Instead of bouncing back the ball you will have to prevent the harsh words of your toxic parents from affecting you.

Controls: - Move Up (Up arrow or 'W') - Move Down (Down arrow or 'S')

Game Modes: - Single player (W + S to play right side or ↑ + ↓ for right side) vs IA - Multiplayer (W + S for right player and ↑ + ↓ for left player)

The left side is the parents side, so each time their paddle touches the text, a new hurtful sentence will be thrown at you.

Developed by: - Kamal Oumghar (game dev) - Alberto Plaza (game dev) - Pablo Boscà (sound) - MingRui Yin (art)

We used: - C# (Unity 3D) - Procreate - Mixcraft (free trial) - Audacity

I love the toxicity of the game xD Also I feel like a Pro-Pong-Player now, because I'm smarter than a AI that just follows the ball. HUMANS ROCK!

I liked how the comments would slide off the middle of the screen and you get blamed! hahaha great job.
Not sure if it was just my computer, but the embedded version on gamejolt was small and made it hard for me to read the text on the 'pong ball'

If I was the dad of all these developers you would be whooped on the bottom daily five times a day forever.

this is a really different approach to the theme xD I enjoyed my time playing it, adding a more active mechanic shift might be something to think, great art I loved it!
