I played a 3D pong back in the day, not with the curving... it's sweet. :smile: 13570, lvl 5.

Up to 19570, lvl 7... woot.

Very unresponsive sometimes. There were about 8 times where my panel was in the way of the ball and it still went "out". Got to level 5 because of that.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

1st go lvl 7 21200. Remember some old 3D Pong from a while back but
this is miles better and way more intense when speed picks up in later
levels. Love the curving :smile:

If that link doesnt work just copy paste it into the address bar and hit enter, should work that way.

Level 7 is pretty intense (sorry for no audio, I had to cut it to make the file a reasonable size)

Yeah, check out my uber slow reaction time....

I wish you could just skip to level 7 or so to start off. Cuz you get in the groove of playing fast, and then all of a sudden you lose and have to go back to square 1.
