✦ AI summary
Players appreciate this game as a fun, polished couch co-op experience with good replay value and variety through maps and mutators, though it works best when played with friends. The main complaints center on the lack of single-player or AI modes, limited post-launch content updates, controller-only controls, and technical issues with resolution settings that have frustrated some players.
I played this game with my kid. It’s a good game. Lots of replay value1 found this helpful
It's probably a fun game but I wouldn't know because there's a horrible bug forcing me to run it 4K despite not having a 4K monitor and not having the hardware to run 4K. Trying to change this in the settings doesn't work as pressing 'apply' only sets it to 4K again. Because of this my frame rate is stupidly low. This sucks because I really wanted to enjoy this but instead I'm getting a refund. Edit: Tried again after developer said bug was fixed. However, it still ran horribly and now there is not even an option to change resolution. It may be something specific to my hardware I don't know, but thank you to the developer for at least trying to fix it. I'm going to have to get another refund though.1 found this helpful
https://youtu.be/V4uYfJHmr7M Refreshing a classic gameplay experience it has just enough staying power to be a snackable game without asking for a commitment to a full meal.
Now that I've finally played this game correctly I can recommend it. You can only play this game with another player. It is exclusively couch-coop, not even bots. But it's fun. It's polished visually and audio-wise, and it has a bunch of maps and mutators for the game. I needed to use Steam input to get it to work correctly with both of my controllers. One was a Gulikit KK3 so I guess the game wasn't really capable of handling it. Regardless it's a fun and polished game for whenever you want to play with a friend. Obviously don't get this game if you don't often have someone to play it with. I got it for free so I had nothing to lose.
So.. Dashpong i saw this game on a steam deck community and i thought "wow, this game looks fun, ill definitely get it when it comes out". It came out in October, i got it in December. Dashpong is exactly what it looks like, a new way of playing Pong, and it does this perfectly. everytime i play it i always have fun with my friends. unfortunately, the few gripes i have about this game made me not play it as much -The game was last updated (not counting small updates and such) was in December 2022, around the same time i got it. so after i played it with friends a bit, we were a bit tired of waiting for new content. -Controller Only, no Keyboard capability, which sucks in some situations. -No singleplayer/Ai mode. ive seen multiple other reviews about this topic, so it seems like something everyone wants. although i havent played it much, ive had fun playing it with friends when we were. in its current state, id give it a 7/10, but that may change soon
This is great
