real360 Pong
Created By:
UPDATE: Due to unusually high scores, a new version of real360 Pong has been released to help remedy this problem.
Changes:
-Scores cannot be submitted if the game fell below 40fps for too long.
-You cannot submit a score lower than a score you've already submitted that session.
-No scores under 10 may be submitted.
-Ball acceleration is lowered slightly to reignite the high-score boards without deleting anyones score.
-Additional polish to make the update more than just a security fix. 
PLEASE NOTE: You MUST update in order to submit high-scores. Any version prior to v1.5 is now locked out of the high-score boards.
A highly addicting little pong remake in which the goal is quite simple, keep the ball from ever leaving the screen. Control the paddle using the mouse, as it rotates around a 360 degree axis. The longer you can stay in the game, the faster the ball gets. How many hits can you make before you ultimately fail to keep it contained?
Features:
Smooth game play,
True 360 degree paddle,
Online high-score board.*

very very good. it looks like it might use some hwa. but if it doesnt, or if it wouldnt be too hard, throw this up on the arcade!
very fun. although it gets harder a bit too fast for me. still playing.
This game rules!
Wow, really addicting, good looking, and fun!
He has very kindly allowed me to export to flash and put a page for it on my website
This is extremely addicting and I love how nicely the GB highscores are integrated.
Origional and really fun to!
Playing this game reminded me of playing Dragin Age: Origins
PS. Does anyone know who WombAid is? Cos I do
who is he!? holy crap how did he even get those scores?!
Hey SilverFire, if you want I can update the one on my page if you send me the source
I deleted some of the outrageous scores and will be releasing a new version of the game that will have some precautions in it to avoid cheating.
After the newest version is released, any version prior to that will NOT be able to submit scores because I will be changing the password for the board. Really sorry for the inconvenience guys. :/
Woo Hoo! I just made #2 on the list!
You should remove Ctrl-P to pause... that way it won't play out like Dragon Age (whereby you can pause before deciding your new move). Also I think you should limit the speed of the bar, otherwise people might just run it in a shell at 1/2 the framerate or less.
I wasn't here to cause trouble, just point out the current flaws in the game by getting those rediculously high scores.
apologies, you did fix the pause bug, the framerate issue should still be considered. Nice work.
You can't submit a score if your framerate drops below 40fps for too long now.
ah good idea... i wouldn't have thought of that. At the extreme ends of things, I supposed someone could write a program to play the game to pin-point accuracy, but that person would have a fair bit of work cut out for them. Plus you probably just designed this for a bit of fun and not an exercise in anti-hacking measures, so its probably not worth over-analysing.
Good concept for a game though. I think it could be more varied with powerups and perhaps free balls every once and a while (two bouncing at once, but you only lose the game when no balls are left). That way it isn't just reliant on fast reflexes, but also strategy. Then there won't be that wall of about 25-35 where it just gets too fast for your reflexes.
The entire point of the game is to be extremely simple which is why it's addicting. The second you start adding that stuff, it gets more fun to play for about 5 minutes and then very old after 10.
Fair enough, in the spirit of 1980s arcade games, simple is better.
Not sure where this 'addicting' word has come from as an adjective, everyone's throwing it around like no tomorrow. The word ends in -ing, making it a verb. eg. "I'm addicting." just like "I'm driving." or "I enjoy cooking."
Must be a pop-culture misuse thing.
It's still used as a verb. "It's addicting" implies "It's addicting me"
It's also misused too. But I didn't see any misuses in my short scan.
hmmm yeah ok that makes sense... i have to apply a relationship between the game and a person to get there. For some reason 'addictive' just sits a lot better with me.
Sometimes the ball bounce in odd directions, like to the outside of the circle. Its a real mood killer when it happens at score of 46
whooo! This addicting
Very cool 8)
Pretty good game but i cant get above 11 8)
