Description: Enter a sports arena of the future in this fast-paced game based on ping pong. The virtual arena is encased in glass, floating in space, giving you a surreal and exciting environment to play in. Leave yourself enough room to be able to swing your 2 paddles, one for each hand and get ready for a workout.
Choose from 1 of 3 levels and prepare to serve a sizzling ball of electricity to your AI opponent. Balls will bounce off walls, ceiling and floor at angles based on the laws of physics. Balls speed up over time and there is an option the temporarily slow down the movement during gameplay, when needed, to help make precise hits.
Review: Electro Pong VR is a very basic looking version of pong in which you seem to bat an electric ball to someone else (an AI) and hit it back, so ping-pong, but sci-fi themed maybe. Whatever the reason for this game not getting released I don’t think that is such a bad thing as it looks far too basic to be any good. Maybe if it had some sort of multiplayer mode that would be OK, but I get the feeling we are all better off for this game not getting a release.
