Handy PingPong Week 2

What happened this week?

This week i built the prototype of my game and deployed it on the web. It is a ping pong game which runs on your laptop but is controlled by your mobilephone. It works with motion, so when you swing your phone the ball is hit. The harder the faster the hit will be. The orientation of your phone decides where the ball will fly.

I wanted it to be a multiplayer game. Since i’m doing it in the web, i thought it would be a nice idea to have the two different views in two different tabs. Like that you can have a personalized layout that fits the situation in which you are playing the best.

The visuals will stay very basic because the main focus should be on the interaction that connects your mobile device and your computer. I just added a simple colorTexture, a dropshadow and a simple trail for the ball.

That’s it for this week
