Pretty good game. When it came to the pong itself though, I won every time. The pong had some pretty strange physics going for it. If I was moving in a direction as I hit the ball, sometimes it would affect the direction of the ball correctly, sometimes it'd be the opposite of where physics dictates that it would go. I was also able to win every single time because if the ball hit the top edge of my player, it drastically increased the ball's speed and gave it an extreme direction that the computer just had no way of keeping up with. This game has a good concept to it, though.

I think I got stuck? I went to the end of the dungeon and wasn't sure where to go. Went back to the dungeon and it sent me to a fight and back where I came from.
The game itself was a really cool take on pong and rpg combat. I think the ball went a bit slow in the beginning but I liked the AI of the paddle as it seemed like it thought about its choices and adjusted it accordingly. I did get the ai stuck sometimes as well.
Thanks for the feedback!
That hit with the top edge is on purpose (maybe a bit extreme), so it can work as a "critical hit".
Sorry about that getting stuck bug, i forgot to implement a way to stop the player from replaying levels, and it seems to mess up when you replay a level...
On the map you are mean to click one of the skeletons, and then click the "name of the dungeon" button at the bottom of the screen. (Will modify the entry so it's clear!)
Cheers!
Love the graphics and concept of this pong game. Really well done. I included it in part 17 of my Mini LD #58 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/fey8aVM0ewk
