Use the arrow keys to move your paddle (you're at the left.)

Solution: try harder.

The paddle moves at 2x the speed of the ball. It's all about reaction time.

It only moves up 9 times in a second. Maybe you missed the ball by a split second?

Also - in case you didn't know you are the left paddle.

Re: Variable Pong.

I thought you were joking when  saw the project on "Friends' Latest".  big_smile  It's a really unique idea - why didn't I think of that? Bah - I'm working on a 0 sprite, 1 script puzzle game instead (I haven't gotten very far - I've been busy being a scary walrus with a London accent (Alice Through The Looking Glass - don't ask!  lol ) ). Anyway, it was a very smooth game (when haven't your projects been smooth, though?). Loved-it!
