ooh, nice! this is a vast improvement over the previous version, mr trumpet. a few more powerups and it shall be a keeper.

those could include: multiball, inverted ball bounce rules, randomization(now that you've turned it off), fluctuating paddle size, flipped screen display(so the paddle is on the opposite side), gravity(so the ball constantly accelerates towards the paddle), the obvious guns(shooting could explode the blocks as well as keep the ball in the air), dual paddles(each half the size of the original), or anything else that seems feasible. good luck!

multiball
Maybe.  I don't think I could make it work, though. :-\

I'm not sure what you mean by this.

Okay. ;D

Maybe.  I think it's possible...

Nah, I think the guns make the game too easy, plus I don't really want to include them in Ping. ;)

O.o
Yes!  That sounds like a lot of fun! ;D

Keep in mind that I've only been laying the foundations for the powerups and they will not be implemented until the next version. ;D

Nice I love it. However you still have the annoying score screen exiting (that costed you some points in the contest for Jump) :/

hitting that last block looks pretty frustrating. maybe they could appear slowly and at random instead of all at once?

I'll have this fixed later; I need to get my sideways text working... ;)

Nah, it's only frustrating if you have to play sideways and can't turn the calc on its side. :)

Yup.  I'm not sure on CaDan (I play it regularly), but it will be very much like Puyo Puyo. ;D

Nice job for sprites and collision and movements. However, the game itself is not very fun, it's quite boring actually.

Work on that ;)

that post would have sounded better if you mentioned how he could have made it better.  Omnimaga is a community with constructive criticism, not putting down projects.  Since you are new, you may not have known, but know you do.  ;)

I agree with'you.

Maybe the platform should be smaller;
Maybe there could be levels of difficulty;
Maybe there could be a time limit, a counter;
Maybe there could be two balls instead of one;


Enough? :P Good Luck on that

Okay, you asked for it, but I'm not responsible for the aftermath if you do not play in a padded room... :P
