About Newpong Multiplayer
Newpong is Pong with the parts that aged badly replaced. The core is untouched — two paddles, one ball, do not let it past you — but it adds an optional power-up mode that changes ball behaviour mid-rally, and it runs in split-screen for two people on one machine as well as solo against the computer.
It is about as quiet and low-stakes as a two-player game gets, which makes it a reasonable pick for a shared laptop where a loud game would be a problem. If you want the same simplicity with a sports skin, Neon Ping Pong is next door.
How to play
In local two-player, the red paddle uses W and S and the blue paddle uses the up and down arrow keys. Solo play uses either set against the computer. Turn power-ups on from the menu if you want the ball to behave unpredictably; leave them off for the classic game.
Controls
- Red paddle — W (up) and S (down)
- Blue paddle — Up and Down arrows
- Local split-screen, single player, optional power-ups
Tips to win
- Hit with the edge of the paddle to change the angle; centre hits come straight back.
- Return to the middle after every return — chasing the ball is how rallies are lost.
- Play the first few games without power-ups so you learn the base ball speed.
