Yes, I hear the sounds. Using Windows XP on a 954MHz Athlon Thunderbird.

everything runs fine on my computer. I like the background music did you create it yourself?

Two comments:

1. Very challenginge
2. If the ball hits the last pixel on the paddle it won't collide. ie if the ball hits the very left it goes right through.

Good work!

no i downloaded it from http://www.partnersinrhyme.com/. They have some free sound effects and music.

I'm gonna take a look at the collision code and see if I can get that right. I noticed that recently also, how it went through the end pixels. I'm also tweaking the AI margin of error to make it a bit more likely that he can screw up. I'm still not sure why the game was running slow for jonahrowley though.

I guess it's just me, but it starts up fine but when I press space to start the game, as soon as the ball hits either paddle, the game crashes. Anyone else experience this?

Very Nice!

I like the AI. It's kinda fun to see the computer going somewhere without the ball going there, unlike most ping pong clones that just make the AI mostly go with the ball.

Nice!
Very very difficult. Is the game frame-rate independent? Its running incrediblt fast for me. Its was nice and simply, though. Ran perfectly with no troubles.

I'm not %100 positive, but arn't you supposed to be able to reach the ball everytime no matter where the ball is vs where your "pad" is? The computer scored on me at least 4 times because I was at the other side and my "pad" couldn't reach the other side while the ball was going 50mp/h(not literally...). A mouse sensitive pad would probably be a lot more precise, also gives you another small challenge/task.
Hello?

hmm, maybe something with the "ping" sound effect. That fires off on a hit of the paddles. Do you get the music? could be a sound issue that i need to work out.
