PONG Quest™

‎Now this is truly a real honest-to-goodness spirit of an indie gem at its best, while technically a licensed corporate game! ‎Why I recommend this one? ‎Because of these! ‎100% free of industry plant, 111% organic hype---0% astroturfing. And absolutely 0.0% nepo game! ‎ ‎This one is a uniquely hilarious, certified artifact from the "oldie but goldie" era—an absolute fever dream of a game that forces your brain to instantly shift into full okey-dokey mode. ‎Are you profoundly confused? Perfect. That means your neurons are still working. Don’t panic; the existential dread is totally normal, and you are still technically you. ‎Onward, before the nostalgia wears off! ‎:3 ‎ ‎Do you know how Pong started? ‎In 1972, Atari unleashed Pong, a digital monolith cleverly disguised as two rectangles hitting a square. Engineered by Allan Alcorn as a mere training exercise, co-founder Nolan Bushnell immediately "weaponized" it for capitalism. Installed at Andy Capp’s Tavern, the prototype famously suffered a catastrophic mechanical failure because it choked on too many quarters! ‎Then Magnavox promptly sued, proving Atari didn't invent virtual tennis—they just perfected the art of monetizing it,…

Charming visuals, but the gameplay is just so bland I can't recommend it.

Yeah, this lost me with keyboard controls. I wish they'd had included mouse support and make the opponents less gimped as a result. Simply not fun.

I really enjoy a lot the idea to turn the classic Pong-game into a rpg-experience! The negative reviews here about complaining, that the ball becomes incredibly fast later are just unfair (seriously, that's just Pong for you). Each ball got effects for your Pong-hero or the combat itself. For example healing potions, harder attacks, etc. And the character creation inside is just simple and fun. But unfortunately I have to mention some bad parts as well, which are the reason why I can't 100% recommend it and therefore you should better grab it only on sale: 1. The game designer here's not responding anymore to questions or bug reports. 2. The online function doesn't work, which is a big no-go! Playing with your friends matches online, showing around your fun Pong-creations and giving the whole game some replay-value is very important! How could the game-designer refuse to fix this issue and just ignore us customers? 3. Some trophies are almost impossible to achieve (maybe even impossible?), especially because it's not possible to start a new game. At least I'm not aware of it and like I've said, the creator's not responding. There are even 2 possible endings in that game and bec…

Fun little game. Not worth $15, but I paid $3 for it on the black friday sale and it's worth that. It's pong but an RPG and it has powerups. It's pretty hard to mess up Pong.

It's good, well made, kinda fun - but in the end, it's just playing Pong.
