An infinite p(i|o)ng game with a little extra juice. Made over Christmas 2021 during COVID self-isolation.

Controls:

Menu:

• Play: p
• Play fast mode: f

Gameplay:

• Pause: p
• Restart to menu: r
• Paddle 1: w/s keys
• Paddle 2: up arrow/down arrow keys

For nerds:

This was primarily an experiment with JavaScript to see if I could get around garbage collection pauses; as such, the main loop generates minimal new data structures that need to be heap allocated, with the sole exception being new particles.
