Choose 1 of 2 backgrounds to play in. Use the up and down arrow keys to control your paddle. Block the ping pong ball from getting past you. You win once you get 10 points! HAVE FUN! :) NEW GRASSY BACKGROUND! NEW STRIPED PADDLE! NOTE: AMOUNT OF POINTS TO WIN CHANGED FROM 5 TO 10
This was an assignment for my MESA science exploration class. I actually had a bit of trouble figuring this game out. I wanted to make the ball automatically and randomly bounce, but I just couldn't figure out a realistic and reliable way. I eventually made it so the ball just follows the same path every time except the paddle interferes and changes it. This made it so once you had won once, it was fairly easy to remember what to do to win again but it was the best I could do at that time. Well, I just realized that there is a TUTORIAL for a pong game and it showed how to make it bounce randomly so there is a NEW AND IMPROVED RANDOM BALL BOUNCING SYSTEM!!! It is 10 times better now. HAVE FUN PLAYING! :)
