I Made Pong, But YOU'RE The Ball!

[@DevBanana]

Did you like this style of video? It was a bit different to usual as I tried to stretch it out a lot to make it longer. Play the game here: devbanana.itch.io/pong-fps Also, if you want to support me even more than by liking and watching this video, join my Patreon: www.patreon.com/devbanana

[@anantgamedev]

yeah, i noticed it in few parts of the video...wouldn't say they were boring tho...u managed to keep it engaging (for me atleast) either way, you'll see how does it feels to others by the retention percentage you get in this video :))

It was good and I like longer videos

[@HelieNerb]

I think it would actually be cool if the goal as the ball was to leave the table and not to touch the racket, unlike the real pong

[@coolraygaming]

Exactly. I thought it would be nice if the objective was to miss the paddles, and work AGAINST the AI

[@yahyagd104]

Yeah I thought that too

[@jihrexz666]

@FloppityLopp hello eft enjoyer

[@raululu_]

it would also be a fun mode where you could pick a side and hit one paddle and try to avoid the other like it was a real game between two players but you want one side to win

[@BluePhantomGames]

Coding AI is hard bud. 😭 I am experienced

[@user-sl6gn1ss8p]

You should give points according to the speed the paddle is hit, this way there's an incentive to go fast, which is riskier

[@zelos666]

The Physics Material works just fine. But you set the Bounce Combine to 'Average', which averages both colliding objects' bounciness value. So if the walls have 0 and your ball has 1, then you'll get a 50% bounce. You just need to add the same material to the walls or set the Bounce Combine to 'Maximum'.

[@logosking2848]

I thought it was a restitution/elasticity/gravity issue. It didn't bounce back up because gravity dampens the velocity and it trends towards 0 over time.

Looks really fun! It would be so awesome if the ball went up and down like actual ping-pong.

[@DevBanana]

True, that would have been a lot cooler actually if it could bounce up and down as well, I think I tried too much to keep the original gameplay

I had wanted to be a game developer when I was younger, but then I realized how complicated it would be to code, make models, etc (also I'm too lazy to spend hours learning and doing it), so I decided to pursue an art career instead, but I have so much respect for you and other game devs for putting in the time and effort to make amazing games

I'm currently working on a 2d game, do you think you would want to help me by drawing stuff? I'm good at coding but really trash at art. I wouldn't be able to pay you, and I don't really plan on making money off of it anyways, but its fun as a hobby for me.

[@skysurfer_kon1641]

You could make a first person basketball game next! I always had that idea in mind, except that I cannot make 3d games, only 2d. Also, feedback for the game: -the movement of the ball is a bit too slow -there is not enough feedback on the game, you should add particle effects to it to make it better. -you should make a swinging animation for the paddles -you could try to make the ball bounce on the table so it feels better -add screenshake -if you fail to hit the paddle, the ball could fall off the table and hit the floor, while having the camera switch to 3rd person (cinematic style) -try to add lighting from the ceiling + bloom while you're at it -You can see the polygons of the paddle, which makes it look kind of low quality

[@MajatekYT]

You should make the ball bounce on the receiving side of the court to add that classic "tok" sound and so it looks less "floaty". It'd be easy enough to add it with an offset multiplier sinewave variable.

[@Volta-zz5uo]

[@hawshimagical]

bro is making an OS not WAY harder than making a game in unity? that sounds so difficult

[@terryabracey237]

I think it would also be cool if this was a 2 - 3 player game. Where the paddles were also controlled by people and their goal was to keep the ball in play for a set amount of time. And (another commenters idea) the player-controlled ball had to try and escape the board.

[@UsmanAli-oe5rh]

Man this video was great I didn't got bored !!

[@servicer6969]

You should make the ball bounce off the table

[@ChazzBurger]

fun fact with the bouncy material, you can make it bounce without slowing down you just have to change some perameters i honestly forgot which ones i did it a while ago

[@Tri_Code]

I have a random game idea for you were it's just like this but you control one of the pedals instead of the ball and its of course in 3d. Love your vids keep it up!

[@WilliamAamold]

[@geostorm8192]

Idk why I expected an asymmetrical 3-player game where the ball player gets points every time it flew out the table

[@bradymelvin7372]

[@ccstuff83]

A cool idea would be to give the ball zero gravity, but it can bounce wherever it wants, allowing you to go on an adventure thought the apartment completing tasks.

[@alialhayek8159]

I thought you were gonna make us "the player" gain so much speed that you would have to try to miss the paddle, and this is how you would win and try new stuff every other level

[@QuackerToast]

Imagine having a 2D first person game *not an idea but if you want to do it your free*

[@OriginPlayss]

Holy Crap, This Is So Good... I Think, I Just Started Watching. R.I.P Bean 2019 Or Something Like It-2022

[@Ayaz32141]

I think you can develop this and make a game that the person can play, the ball will try to escape from the rackets, the rackets will gain points as you touch it, but if the ball escapes, the rackets will lose points.

[@doltramir]

I think, it would've been an interesting game, if you needed to help one player win. The one you try to help is calm, but not that good at game, while his opponents are mad, angry, crazy, and so on. And you have a LOT less control. You can just correct trajectory, and like in real pong - you need to hit the table after each hit. Plus make the ball gradually slow down, while every hit adds some velocity. And make players be further away from the table.

[@ferenccseh4037]

I think these videos are wholesome. Seeing a youtuber who isn't 100 times better at making video games than me is wholesome and has also given me some confidence. Keep up the good work! At this pace you will become one of those youtubers who are 100 times better than me 🥲

[@martinmikulskythecoolest3364]

I really like this game but it could have a few additions. Maybe there could be a person moving the Paddle. Maybe there could be a visual to make it look like you're bouncing

[@yaa2813]

The "Select Children" option could be interpretated in many ways 😂

[@AudleStudios]

You should totally add physics into the game. So if you miss the paddle you can break the glass or the TV.

[@yoshijr7630]

cool game would be 3rd person game like soccer, your goal is to aviod being hit few meters back by opponents(soccer players(cpu)) and score a goal with yourself

[@mr_engineertheboric]

I remeber when you were at 700 subscribers, amazing youtuber

[@hedwig7s]

ls nice Could be cool to have the paddles have random movement though Then you'll be about to hit it and get sent into the TV as the paddle suddenly changes direction

u might be able to: add gravity so the ball hits the table and bounces change the movement to depend on the mouse, and have the ball bounce in the direction the player is facing adjustments to the court size maybe

[@fertiz_]

wow, it looks so fantastic. Have you tried other game engines / game frameworks?

you should make the paddles move faster after you reach a certain score like 10, then 20 ect its still cool though

[@alexasbagel]

I imagine this but instead of this you have slide and jump mechanics like apex but more dramatic. Mahbe some jump panels and rings. Then have the rackets have a position that they lock into and then that changes. My vision would be kind of a parkour/play forming game to reach the paddle but with fairly easy and smooth controls so it’s enjoyable and not slow and clunky
