Hex Pong

Cyberpunk Pong with neon glow, CRT scanlines, and synth audio. Two paddles, one ball, pure skill. The ball accelerates with every rally — first to 11 points wins (must win by 2 after 10-10). Games are fast and intense, typically lasting 2-3 minutes.

Hex Pong 3 7

Controls

  • Arrow Up / Arrow Down — Move paddle
  • W / S — Alternative controls

Rules

  • Each player controls a paddle on their side of the screen
  • The ball bounces off the top and bottom walls
  • If the ball passes your paddle, your opponent scores a point
  • Ball speed increases with each paddle hit, up to 2.4x initial speed
  • Speed resets after each point scored
  • Ball angle depends on where it hits the paddle — center gives a shallow bounce, edges give steep angles (up to 60 degrees)
  • First to 11 points wins — deuce rule applies after 10-10 (must win by 2)

Inspiration

Based on Atari's Pong (1972) — the game that started the video game industry.
