I used to play a PD game which was a pong-type clone but much more advanced. It was kind of between breakout and pong and I seem to remember having a 2 player mode too. Does anyone know what on earth I am going on about?? If so, could you put me out of misery and tell me what it is called?

Thanks
Allan

There are tons of Pong and Breakout clones for all kinds of platforms. My advice is to google "pong clones" and "breakout clones" and see if any names ring a bell.

Poing.

Great game! I liked it's unique way of doing levels. You didn't have to knock out all the bricks, just enough to make it to the right-side edge and then your ball would move on to the next level. Likewise, when you missed the ball, you didn't lose a life, the ball would simply fall back to the level before (alhtough incredibly sped up). You wouldn't actualy die until you missed the ball on level 1.
