Cyber Pong

Cyber Pong is a two-player Pong variant by georgegognadze that uses arithmetic as its control scheme. While the ball is in play, the game poses a times-table question; answering correctly keeps your paddle moving, and failing hands momentum to your opponent.

Choose one or two players and a ball speed of 5, 10 or 15. In one-player mode the computer opponent is the challenge; in two-player mode one player uses W and S while the other uses the arrow keys. It is an unusual blend of reflex arcade game and mental arithmetic drill.

How to Play

1. Pick a player count and a ball speed, then start the game.
2. Answer the maths question before the timer expires to keep your paddle responsive.
3. Last paddle to miss loses the point.
4. Watch the score and the question strip at the top of the window.

Controls

• Enter - start
• Space - start / restart
• W / S - player 1 paddle
• Up / Down - player 2 paddle
• M - menu

Tips

The maths question is the real opponent. If you are comfortable with 12x tables, this is a very fast game; if not, the questions will cost you more rallies than your opponent will.
