About Notified

Your phone notifications keep popping up, relentlessly, distracting you from the game at hand! Luckily you have three abilities that can help.

Abilities

  • Airplane Mode - Do you have too many notifications? Activate Airplane Mode and clear them out
  • Battery Drain - Are you about to score a point and want to make sure that you do? Stop your opponent's movement with Battery Drain
  • Quick Charge - Need to stop your opponent from scoring? Quick Charge gives you a speed boost for a crucial save

Sometimes that brain will get past your phone and you will be seconds away from giving up a point. Brain Freeze to the rescue! Smash that brain against the wall and get another chance at victory.

All game modes now included


The High Score and Local Multiplayer game modes that were previously DLC are now included for free in Notified. Climb the High Score leaderboards and earn bragging rights. Challenge a friend to fast-paced matches in Local Multiplayer. The original Quick Match game mode with a smart AI opponent is still a great way to practice for High Score and Local Multiplayer matches!

  • High Score - put your Notified skills to the test! Score as many points as you can before the AI scores and resets your score. Your all-time highest score is recorded on the leaderboard for bragging rights
  • Local Multiplayer - Notified is best when shared with friends! Local multiplayer supports both players using a single keyboard, one player using the keyboard and one player using a gamepad, as well as both players using gamepads

Somehow they messed up pong?

Игра "Notified" — необычный гибрид головоломки и квеста, где игроки получают уведомления с заданиями. Плюсы: оригинальная идея, динамичный геймплей и атмосфера напряжения. Минусы — сложность некоторых уровней и технические сбои. Подойдет тем, кто любит интеллектуальные вызовы. Рекомендую попробовать, но не ожидайте шедевра.

"Notified" is an incredibly simplistic, minimalist (or just low effort) Pong ripoff arcade game that's about 7 years old and looks 37. What's the game about, according to the developer? Notified subjects players to a relentless stream of on-screen notifications they must constantly manage. Gameplay revolves around reacting to this barrage, forcing reliance on specific abilities like Airplane Mode to clear the screen, Battery Drain to impede an opponent, and Quick Charge just to keep up. Success hinges merely on quick reactions and anticipating the next wave of interruptions in this frantic experience. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come across as "artistic", but it doesn't, it comes across as "really lazy". Yes, contemporary 3D graphics take a lot of time and effort to create. That doesn't mean it's okay not to bother! Developers must try to understand that gaming is a visual medium, and gamers spend a lot of money on high end gaming rigs for a reason. And that reason is not so they can look at lazy, phoned-in half efforts like this. You're forced to sign…

Interesting game mechanics for pong but not fun all the same.
