:(

The program can't start because PhysXLoader.dll is mmissing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem.

I get the following error when I run the game:

I have an ATI Radeon 3650 and PhysX is installed.

The ball could be a bit faster. Otherwize I liked the idea and it must've been a great learning experience :). You should keep working on this! :P

TFernando

Also getting PhysXLoader.dll is missing. :(

Serilyn

Nice use of lighting on the ball. Also, the game could use a scoring mechanism.

Endurion

Seriously, a full grown physics engine at a whopping 40 MB for a pong clone?

I mean, seriously? ;)

Secondary WTF: How the f*ck did they manage to make a effing physics library 120 MB on the hard disk??

Honestly, isn't PhysX a bit overkill for a pong game? ;)

Nice effort... unfortunately in it's unfinished state it's not very fun. Ball went off the side of the screen and never respawned. :( Also, the paddles can fly off the edges of the screen.

The obstructions were an interesting twist, but they ended up mostly making the ball bounce around for a long time leaving the paddles with nothing to do.

Getting error :(

You didn't need to have this dependant on PhysX. That alone may have horribly hurt your ratings so far, but speaking as someone who owns a top of the range Nvidia card, I just thought the game was a little boring. Pong isn't really that fun to begin with, but adding in the obstructions just made it a little random. The ball doesn't even get very fast :/ sorry buddy.

This could've used an AI opponent. Playing against myself isn't that much fun. In any case, the random obstacles don't really add anything for me, they mostly make the game play itself. It seems to run smoothly, and I like the idea of adding stuff to pong, but this game isn't quite there. You seem to have got ogre working fine though, good work!

Not that great, but it being pong==awesome

I had the PhysXLoader.dll problem. I'll try again later.

Hempuli

PhysXloader bug. Dang. :(

badlydrawnrod

Crashed on me when loading the first time, but was ok the second time. I spent a lot of time watching the ball and not a lot of time doing anything, but thumbs up for getting something working with unfamiliar tools.

Doesn't work for me. Also, simple games like this are better off as 2D games.

sirGustav

interesting but flawed concept. And the ball also always seems to get created on the right side making it an easy for the left one.
