Ping Pong, baby!

Pong is a screamer game that draws inspiration from the classic 1970s video game Pong, created by RobBoberty in 2015. In this game, players compete against a computer-controlled paddle on the right side of the screen. The objective is to score 10 points before the computer wins. Players can control the paddle using arrow keys or a cursor that moves the paddle automatically in the direction of the cursor.

As players progress through the game, each time they score a goal, something strange happens in the background:

  • 2 points: Strange yellow squares flash in the background.
  • 4 points: A creepy clown flashes briefly, accompanied by a laugh. The computer-controlled paddle palette becomes twice as large as normal.
  • 6 points: An edited image of a girl that might induce trypophobia appears. The background and paddle turn red, and the ball becomes a skull.
  • 7 points: A red-filtered image of an eye with a mouth edited in as the pupil appears. The screen starts shaking, making it harder to play.
  • 9 points: A picture of a bloody severed mouth appears. Nothing else happens, but the computer-controlled paddle can now predict where the ball is going.


What could be so scary about this classic 1970's video game?
