Plasma Pong - Today's Time Waster

plasma pongThis one's only for Windows, but it's too much fun to pass up. Plamsa Pong is just Pong, but with the dreamy realtime fluid dynamics capable with today's modern machines to liven up the look and gameplay. There are some little twists on the game as well, including the ability to shoot plasma and shockwaves (very handy). Did I mention the plasma isn't just for looks? Those fluids affect gameplay too. Another neat trick: sucking up plasma, and hence, the ball, back to your paddle. Plasma Pong is a lot of fun to play, and even more fun to watch. The developer is planning some great stuff for the game though, like cross-platform support, online scoreboards, and multiplayer capabilities. So start practicing before all the OS X and Linux gamers show up to the party...
