MyPong

Tiny "Pong" project I worked on back in my student days to have fun with C++.

I'm actually surprised the code isn't as terrible as I would have expected, looking at it after so many years 😝

Resources

All image resources have been created using GIMP.

The font was found here : https://www.dafont.com/zenzai-itacha.font

Librairies required

• SDL
• SDL_image
• SDL_ttf

Controls (to play)

Left Player		Right Player
e	<= Move up =>	Up arrow
d	<= Move down =>	Down arrow
Space	<= Serve =>	5 (Numpad)

Ideas

1. Take account of elapsed time between frames (c.f. Ball.move() & Racket.move())
2. Add a fallible IA (i.e. which doesn't simply follow the ball, but interact with its racket using accelerateUp() & accelerateDown(), as a human would)
3. Handle a simple menu
4. Play with 3/4 players (i.e. Rackets on the top and bottom of the screen)
