Amazing idea and execution. Kudos.
Really cool idea! I just wanted to scream to everyone on my team to just pick a spot and stay there so we cover the entire side rather than everyone trying to hit the ball.
omagad it was SO FUN I don't know how it's possible but suddenly i became Admin and was moving freely spawning multiball with 1 :O AWESOME
If you make a wall, there is literally no way to lose.
Nicely done! Minimal for sure, multiplayer and very smooth. Gameplay, graphics, and sound all worked together nicely.
Great idea and nice execution. Not sure players are all playing the same game or is it just collecting names? Will have to investigate the source...
Wow! An MMO in 48h! Mad props, man! And it plays so smooth!
At first, I thought it was awesome that it was semi-MMO pong. Then I realised that it wasn't actually multiplayer, and then I knew the meaning of awesome.
Loved the Idea!!!! Gratz!
Very great game. Pong is as minimal as you can get really :D
I have just been through a roller coaster of emotions.
First, I read the description. Oh wow, I thought. Someone really tried to go for a large scale multiplayer game? And it's pong? What a cool idea! I have to see this!
Then, I saw the message about how many hundreds of players were playing right now, and I thought, really? I don't know, maybe... if so, awesome!
Then, I saw all the other players paddles. That's when I started to get suspicious. Nobody was AFK. People are always AFK with stuff like this. They were also all moving in very similar ways that looked like AI control to me. Very suspicious at this point.
Then, I clicked away from my browser and saw that the game paused. Boom! I thought! Busted! What a scam! This isn't multiplayer at all! This dev is trying to pass off a fake MMO. Pfft. Loser.
Then, I saw the fake error message and the Admin mode and the crazy Multiball stuff. Oh! Wait! It's a joke. The dev is in on it, and I am just now getting it. Back to "This is awesome!"
Well played, sir. Well played. :)
Brilliant, the most fun I've had with an LD game. I literally laughed out loud when I became admin for some reason and spawned a hundred extra balls.
After spending the weekend creating a multiplayer game for LD26, I was completely blown away by how smoothly your netcode was working.
So blown away that I had to download the source and Check. Through. Every. File. to find out exactly how it worked.
You can't do that to my sleep-deprived brain.
Lol I started playing and I was very confused. I laughed when I became admin and realized it was a joke. Awesome game, really funny stuff.
Hysterically funny. Excellent!
Such an awesome idea, and it's so genius to see play out!!!! Fantastic job!
Bloody brilliant idea. I was completely misled until I got the multi-ball. Mind blowing!
very cool :) Great use of theme!
Well played.
Perfecto! Me and 'BarackObama' rocked it :P
There are so many things that are incredible about this game, I don't even know where to start. I laughed, I cried...10/10, have all of the prizes.
WOw! Amazing man :)
I liked it a lot, super fun! :)
Where did the list of player names come from, because I was "Pacifist Games" and I saw another player on my team called "PacifistGames" did you pull them from your twitter followers?
I love that, when the ball goes too fast, it's actually making some sort of minimalist 8bit music :p
Fun, well done.
This is simply awesome. You forgot to put AFK AI too :D
Wait... I saw some AFKs :D
WeaselZone did an awesome Let's Play of Daft Pong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3oOe9tF3IQ
This is not an MMO. Why would you claim it as an MMO? This is just AI with a random list of fake usernames...
