Pongstruction

It’s my first time participating (at least with the intention of having something finished at the end). I started working first on a basic pong game, but then wondered how I could spice it up a bit. Then I started thinking: what if the player is both (or more) paddles? What if the enemy is at the center of the field?

So I guess this is heading the way of an army crushing game with the ball acting as a cannon ball-type thing. Let’s see where it goes from here.

I am using Sublime Text to edit javascript with Phaser and the graphics are from the Kenney asset pack. So far, I have controllable paddles, background, and the ball that bounces around and gravitates towards the paddles. I’ll probably turn the gravitation into an activated power.
