Today’s game Pong Nop is one of those games where as a flash developer I have to go like “why didn’t I think of this”. It is a classic remake of the game Pong with a large new twist. Your paddle is two-sided and there are two balls, one one each side. The goal is to keep each ball on its own side. Its such a simple concept, yet one that is done so well.

There are no power-ups but the game does start slow and increases in difficulty as you go along. Amazingly, even without power-ups and other such additions, it was an amazingly good game that kept me playing for 15 to twenty minutes, which is more than I can say for most games that involve only bouncing a ball back and forth. This game scores both decent game-play points and creativity of idea points from me and is definitely one of the better and more creative remakes of a classic game that I have seen in a long time. The high scores make it fun to compete against other people. My best around 1800, but I’m not good at these kind of games.
