Description
A simple story-driven Pong game created in under 48 hours for Ludum Dare 30 (theme: Connected Worlds).
Please be sure to actually read the storyline. It's the entire focus of this game. :)
Tips:
Stage 1: This is a standard Pong game. If you need help with it, find someone who has actually played the original. I tried to stay as faithful to it as possible.
Stage 2: If you actually read the dialogue (and see the size of your "paddle"), then I hope you realize the objective is to LOSE, not to win. It's a narrow opening, but the ball moves slower originally than in Stage 1.
Stage 3: Your ally will always move slowly to the closest incoming ball, so let it handle those. Be careful though of one that is coming in slowly with a second ball about to overtake it; your ally will start moving towards the second one instead as soon as it is closer.
And finally, THANKS FOR PLAYING!
How to Play
W/S or Up/Down to move
Space/Enter to continue the dialogue / start the game
(If you need tips, read the game description.)

I enjoyed it, although I found the ending a little underwhelming. (Imagine the player embracing a life-sized pong paddle?) I didn't think "Pong with story" would be fun, but it was!

4/5 excellent game,kind of a underwhelming ending, however I love pong so I love thins game. Kind of short, could have used more levels, and slightly different art work, like I think the paddles were a little thicker in the original. But defiantly a excellent game.

Not bad... on level 3 I lost, it went back to 0 and nothing's happening... (all the players are in default position)
