Nicely made, and the light aspect was pretty interesting.

I absolutely love the graphics on this one. Really great use of colour and gradients. Sublime!

This is very nicely awesomely made for something like 12 hours! Great job!

Audio is darn annoying though once you have so much bullets.

I thought it was a really clever use of the theme as pong might the most famous one screened game of all. And I think you certainty changed it enough to make it your own. I like the fact you have the strategy element of should I hit the ball or get the power up.

This is noisy and annoying but I like it :)

Was fun! However I thought it was hard to see the ball and to initially understand everything, after understanding it all it was super fun!

Nice game and great idea :D

Very nice visuals! Looks polished and solid!
Fun game, even though I couldn't beat the AI :D

Beautiful game based on an interesting idea that's chaotic fun. With two people who know what they're doing matches can get really, really intense. Love it!

Cool idea, the use of light/shadows was really neat. I liked it, good job :)

Well executed, great job!

well made game. think it could use a pacing boost, since playing against the AI i felt like i was in a shooting stalemate at times.

Fun little pong shooter, I like the colour changes... I thought maybe it was tied to the ball position or velocity, but I'm not sure... I did like how the power ups accumulated across the bottom of the screen.. Good work...!

Hi there. Looks and sounds great. Crazy game against AI though... Like the shadow effects. Good job!

Love the idea and the strategy -- really had to work hard to score a goal! Lighting & coloring made a great mood.

Love this. Crazy and psychodelic, as i like.

I like your take on pong, it's simple and original!
But the first time I played I had trouble to figure out what was going on : weird how a simple idea can seem complicated when the visual feedback is a bit messy!
I like the visual style you chose, but I think it needs some more work to make it more readable.
Otherwise, nice job!
