PONG


PONG is a fantastic new competitive mini game based off of the oldest video game ever. So what is PONG Reach edition? Well here's the basics.

You get a grenade launcher, slightly slower movement speed, and no jump. You heard me, no jump. That's because this is your arena

In the old PONG game, you had to get a square ball into your opponents goal, past their bumpers. This is the same thing, but you are the ball, goal, and bumper! You must bounce grenades into your opponents like this.

And kill them like this.

Be careful. Your opponents are trying to do the exact same thing to you!

If you die, which is likely, you respawn with invincibility, and can still do damage, but only for 5 seconds.

You okay? you look a little green.

Watch out for anyone green.

As an interesting touch, I gave you two armor abilities to choose from, Evade, not shown, gives you a quick way out of an explosion, wiht enough juice to return to the fight.

And Armor lock!

It allows you to block all damage done to you, but be careful not to hold it, you are visible from the other side, and people might be in wait for you to finish so as to kill you! Each AA has it's ups and downs, use each wisely.



The first to 100 points wins. The score is by 5 so that means 20 kills to win. This, combined with a nostalgic feel to playing PONG is sure to give players a fun, unforgettable competitive game sure to blow the minds of many, literally.


Take a look at these action shots from the game!

I can see how you can have this opinion on my or any minigame that you have not played before it was posted, and I do not blame you. I look forward to when you and more people play this game and tell me how it is. It may be simple but it is more than just chaotic fun. IT'S CHAOTIC INSANITY!!!!!


P.S. I sure hope it doesn't get boring. Have fun playing it!! :D

Even though this looks relatively simple, it looks like a ton of fun. Downloading now. Cant wait to try it. I have a question though, does this map work with Fuel Rod Guns as well?

It does, and quite well my friend. The FRGs lack in accuracy but make up for pure ROF (rate of fire)

...why is the Tetris theme playing in the video for Pong?

In any case, you've got a download out of me.

I played this a couple of days ago and was wondering how you were going to pull this off when looking at the loadout cam. It may not be exactly like pong but a damn good mini game if you ask me, nice work on the originality.

Because there is no PONG theme song. Just blips. And that would sound rather boring.

Thank you. I am working on a project that will try to recreate PONG but it could take a bit to figure it out.
