Pong is a simplified version of Ping Pong for the computer, popularized on the Atari 2600. Two paddles at opposite ends of an empty playing area can move in one dimension only. A single ball bounces around the screen, and the players duke it out trying to get points by making the other player miss the ball.
This is the home of a project to create an implementation of Pong using the C language and the SDL game library.
Current Status: ball bounces smoothly at arbitrary angles. Working on the menu.
We are making Pong for several reasons:
See the README below.
Note: These require SDL.dll to be in the current directory (get a Zip file containing SDL.dll).
