Hey there! This was a chill, nostalgic, and silly spooky version of Pong. Really brought me back to the good old days with Adobe Flash. 


I played on Easy, Medium and Impossible. Two notes:

1) I feel like when the pingpong ball returns to play, there should be at least a brief pause when it spawns before it is dealt back to the player. Would help a little bit.

2) I'm having an issue with the controls also scrolling in the window itself as I am playing. Bit of an added difficulty when the entire page is moving lol.


I like the art and music! Well done.

Hey, Thank you for the feedback! I am glad you enjoyed it for the dumb game that it is! 

I had considered a delay before spawning, it slipped my mind before the Jam submission time :( But I will make the change ASAP

Same for the controls, I only realised when I played it myself after uploading the browser version to itch. 

Silly mistakes, but lessons learnt!
