PONG

Apr 26, 2025 - 1 minute read

I’m giving the 20 Games Challengeexternal link a go, so naturally, I started with pong.

This version of pong includes the following:

  • single-player against a (rough but beatable) computer opponent
  • multi-player against a local opponent
  • configurable end-game condition
  • menus (a main and pause menu)

Download link (Linux).

Contact if you’d like a version for a different OS!

Main menu Main menu In-game interface In-game interface

Controls

Player 1:

  • W to move the paddle up
  • S to move the paddle down

Player 2:

  • Up arrow key to move the paddle up
  • Down arrow key to move the paddle down (wow!)
