Tilt SCREAM Pong

PongIcon.jpg

I just finished building a game of pong for those of you with Sudden Motion Sensors on your Mac. Using the Sudden Motion Sensor, you can now play Pong. Tilt the laptop to control the paddle and scream to increase the size of the paddle. Enjoy! But play it at your own risk.

    I like the concept. In fact, i came to the idea myself when i was decraesing the numbers of particels in fluidmac.
    But i don’t like the game in this way
    First: I don’t like to scream at my macbook
    second: the game s to difficult.

    advise: Maybe make some sort off Breakout (first apple game) and don(t make the ball going faster, and don’t say we have to scream at our mac.
