A Chill Pong Game

I'm learning to make games so I created this pong game as a part of my 20 games challenge.

Pretty basic game but works in a sports format where a "game" lasts for 5 mins and you win if you score higher than AI.

AI is pretty basic and follows the ball to a certain degree. You have a larger degree of control on where the ball goes as you can do a rotate/spin move. However, be careful because you can't move when you are spinning.

Also, dead balls (those moving too slow horizontally) de-spawn with no point awarded.

Controls:
  • W/Up - move paddle up
  • S/Down - move paddle down
  • Shift - speed up paddle movement
  • Q - rotate paddle counter-clockwise
  • E - rotate paddle clockwise

I wanted to add multiplayer to this but I was not sure if i should as that seems adding complexity to a simple game.

Feel free to roast me on the comments. Look forward to my other "learning" projects

Cheers ~

It would be great to add multiplayer. At least I could play with a friend. Of course it will be more complicated, but I would really like it. Thank you.

I have never made a multiplayer game that runs on web. I'll see if I can work that out but it might end up being on another platform
