  • Hello!
    I had some free time this weekend, so I decided to make a Pong! Well yes, why not? After all, it's still the first video game was becoming famous. Feel free to review and especially tell me if there are bugs.

Im the guy that posts homebrew, so i get the pleasure of deciding what i think is worthy of posting.
Apparently, this game is not up to your high homebrew standards. These days, homebrew projects are more and more scarce, so i welcome new additions to the library.

This is a new release, so im sure there is room for improvement- such as the AI and difficulty.

It's not hard to make pong.

i'm actively awaiting your release of pong.. put your skills where your mouth is son.

i'm happy to see that someone worked on a new pong port, even tho we have a few from gba to ds. it is always possible that this developer will go on to do greater things with the ds. its sad that ds homebrew's "golden age" is over but i still have hopes that many projects will get some updates (hint-hint--- another world ds, flash back ds, ds pack, snemulds, neods, etc.)

thanks for the news, vato.

This is something that I was working on a while ago that I never finished because I got bored with it. It's Magnavox Odyssey for DS. Similar to pong. http://dsgamemaker.com/forum/download/file.php?id=7150

If you want me to make a plain old pong game I will...

How is this home page worthy news?
How about we have a vote on it? I'll open a poll thread and everything, since the news is not just for you, but is for the entire site.

We'll see what the entire site thinks, okay? :)

It's not hard to make pong. Especially with no good AI...
Well then feel free to make and release stuff you think is better.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless

    the booty boogie from (once again) the donkey kong country cartoon could also be a good song to sing while playing sea of thieves
