New Unity project: Pong

I've finished and uploaded another Unity project. This time it's a Pong clone. I've decided to become better at actually completing projects which I think is a very valuable skill to have, and contrary to what you may think is not that easy to do.

When working for a client the budget often determines the scope, but when working on hobby projects there are no limits and feature creep is a real issue. That's why I've decided to just make a few clones of existing games so there would be no chance of feature creep because I would know the scope of the project from the beginning.

You can play the game here:
/projects/pong

As per usual the entire project folder is available for download if you want to have a look. I will try and finish more of my old projects and upload them here in the coming months.

About Øyvind Strømsvik (TwiiK)

I've been passionate about games all my life and started dabbling in game development about 15 years ago with BlitzBasic,... read more but I quickly lost interest and began doing 3d modeling instead. 3d modeling remained a hobby and I picked up game development again around the release of Unity 2.0. My driving force behind wanting to get back into game development was my lost interest in commercial games as they started appealing to a group of gamers I was no longer in. Indie games were the only games that still looked interesting, but at the same time some of them looked like they would be just as fun to make as to actually play. And many of them were made by just one guy.
