  This Ping Pong Game can be played alone! The Name was not influenced by the Atari console with the same name, which was sold in the 70ies. It was just a Pong game made for Home computer Active Magazine HCA. Like some other games, i made that time, i created it for myself and then decided to publish it in the magazine. I wanted to play a ping pong game without having to find another player. Later in my life i got diagnosed with aspergers syndrome, a mild form of autism. In single player mode, the balls collects points as long as it is in play and the goal is to keep it in the game as long as possible. The other obstacles flying around are influenced bei arkanoid of course. The smiley is a reference to acid house music. It is cool to see someone still cares for this old programs.
