Pong 2D

We all know Pong, right?

It was the first ever commercially succesful videogame, created by Allan Alcorn and published by Atari, Inc. on November 29th 1972.


This project here was also the first game I've created. When I just started with Software Development, this was the very first project we were assigned to make. The game features a very simple main menu screen with a play button, quit, but also a "Pong Plus" gamemode. This was an extra gamemode I came up with that simply gave the gameplay just a few new features, hence the name.


I also gave the game some mechanics like the players having a rounded collider to make the ball's direction feel more randomized, I made the ball go faster over time to increase the difficulty, making sure to also make the players move faster and decreasing the smooth time for the camera to follow the ball.


Unfortunately, this game is not playable, but a recording of the gameplay can be viewed below.
