Hi,

Just found this game while researching about electric/plasma effects:
PlasmaPong

Here is a video about it:

So… I wonder if this would also be possible with Unity and… who would be up to such a project…
To create such sandbox effects would be a first goal I guess. :mrgreen:

Best Pong ever was published by Hasbro in 1999. A remake under the Atari Label, with great gameplay. Contrary to the other remakes like Frogger and so on this one was really worth it’s money.

Best Pong ever was Mortal Pongbat.

Nah, not really…

I have that, which came in a pack with Centipede and Breakout. Centipede is also good, in some ways better, but Breakout is lacking.

I never was fond of Centipede a lot beside of beeing excited of the trackball. Those days i spent more coins on DigDug, Tron, Scramble, … whilst enjoying the pain of salvia contact exploding candies. ;O)

Ichor is another fluid dynamics game:

It’s Windows only, but source code is available. There was also an article on fluid dynamics in a recent Game Developer magazine column.

I agree. I beta-tested the Mac port, and it was lots of fun. Not perfect- a couple of the game modes seemed a little broken, but most of it was good.

Oh wait, I meant to say that my version of 3D pong was better. Yeah, that’s the ticket!

(I’m joking of course. But keep in mind, mine was written in '92 so it’s not really a fair comparison.)
