I have the game UltimatePong in an applet at http://www.ultimatepong.net and the website has all the instructions, a forum, a chatroom, and more! Check it out and don’t be shy about leaving me any feedback here or on the site’s feedback form.
Worked fine for me.
wow, that is really odd to see this game because about a year ago my friend wrote a game with the same basic idea; his was just black with white lines. You’ve also gone a bit further since his just had a ball bouncing around and nothing else, but its still wierd to see the same control scheme :).
Good idea, but the cruel -sounds was driving me mad… :-/
Guess what?
I’m also doing something similar ;D

i’d better be the first to register the patent :
I liked it! However when the ball ever hit the little blocks, it totally flipped out. Especially one time where the two blocks were really close together. The ball bounced around as if it were stuck inside one of the blocks, then it managed to escape only to get stuck into the other block and bounce around some more.
Yeah, if you mean the little blocks in the middle they are actually supposed to do that ;). I made it so it would usually look like it draws the ball in and spits it out at a random direction to spice up the game a little bit and keep you guessing.
Just an update: I added a score database so that you can see how you rank with all the other ultimatepong players out there! Thanks to everyone who helped me get it working.
