Pongathon - 1.4.0

Another Pong-Clone-By-Pygame-Noob


Josef Polak
(hardsphere)
Pongathon is yet another clone of Pong written using pygame. I began writing it as an excercise to learn pygame. I don't have plans for it to be anything grander than an excercise for my own benefit, but I'm going to release it anyway. Pongathon was originally called Pyng (a lame name, I know) until it was discovered that the name was already taken by another open source project. Pongathon is by no means complete, and I do not promise it will ever be.

Changes

I've changed the orientation and dimensions of the playing area in order to simulate a table tennis table. This is reflected in both themes. Also, sounds now play when a player scores. Finally, you can switch to full-screen by pressing F on the intro screen, and switch back to windowed by pressing W.
