Pong Timelines: Christmases

Epic Battle

The Mad Wrapper converted a vintage Pong Game to replay a selection of epic battles.  Based on suggestions written on package labels, the user selects from a menu a Pong game to replay.  Pong bots move the paddles up and down to prevent (or allow) the ball to score.  The winner is the first player to reach 15 points. Prize: a gift from The Mad Wrapper!

Loaded Features

Playable Game

As it turns out, this Pong game is fully playable.  If you move one of the paddle, you take control.  A bot will play against you if no one else touches the other knob to control the opposing paddle.  Two players can go head to head simply picking a paddle and moving it.

Clock

It’s also a clock.  If there is no activity for a long period of time, the game becomes a clock.  Once per minute the left player allows a point to score, thus incrementing the right-players score (up to 59 minutes).  When the right-hand player reaches 60 points, the left score increments by one thus advancing to the next hour.
