pongspin (itch)

Do you want to create your own video games? pongspin has everything you need. the game.

Pongspin is a surreal, experimental take on the classic arcade game Pong.

You take control of a paddle orbiting around the core at the center of the arena, and must protect it from the ball by deflecting it. Occasionally, power-ups will appear that you can collect when the ball hits it, in addition to "events", small challenges designed throw you off by partially obstructing the view, summoning decoy balls and strobe lights.

As each stage passes, the ball gradually moves faster and the animations in the background become more elaborate. Will you be able to prevent the jet from crashing and maintain your confidence?
