osxblog.co.uk - Macintosh hints, tips & news.

So we’ve all played Pong in the past, on our mobile phones, PCs, Games Consoles and now people are even playing it with their minds. But now you can play it on the greatest platform of all: Mac. Plasma Pong is not only the coolest version of Pong i’ve ever seen it’s also got the greatest soundtrack. The game works like a usual game of pong but with a dynamic liquid in the middle that you can manipulate using your paddle. As you play the paddle fires out more fluid into the middle causing the ball to be slowed or moved around in it. You use both the mouse and keyboard to control the paddle mouse for up & down. Holding the left arrow shoots plasma out the paddle and holding the right sucks in all fluid and the ball; releasing it fires out a shockwave of energy. There’s even a Sandbox mode that lets you mess around with it all.

“If you’re looking for a cool game to show off to your friends, this is the one. The fullscreen graphics look great and the soundtrack isn’t too shabby either.”
