What is it?
DashPong is the first QB game released that uses Dash.
It was made for the
sole purpose of showcasing Dash.
How is the interface?
The interface is fast enough that it should work on any computer.
The controls
are simple enough for a 3 year old to understand. (They are provided in
the game
for those of you who are 2 year olds - heh.)
Is there anything special about it?
Of course there is. Have you ever seen a VirtuaSoft game that lacked
anything
extra that made the game stand out? DashPong has two extra playing
modes that can
be used instead of the traditional 2p mode: AI mode and ScreenSaver mode.
AI mode
allows one player to go against a computer opponent; ScreenSaver mode has
two
computerized players play. Also, there are the graphics...
Are the graphics good?
They're better than VSPong's graphics (the previous Pong
made by VirtuaSoft)!
DashPong uses 256 colors in screen 13h. (What more could one
want in a Pong
game?) It also has the ball and blockers...and...here it comes...a
scrolling
background! This background will scroll so fast that it will cause
you to lose
concentration and miss the ball, courtesy of Dash's sprite sub.
(That's the purpose,
so live with it!) Let's just say that you haven't played Pong
until you've tried
DashPong...
Do you have any screen-shots?
Of course...I wouldn't want to let you down. Here they are...
Have fun...
