Have you tried holding back for 4 seconds?
Holding Back and down?
Hard Reset? (Back+Center+Play)

Even though this is another version of pong, I love playing games with other zune
gamers! Thanks for making It!

They should make games that are connected to some server and you can play with others who downloaded the gamr and also when are we gonna get halo on zune?

haha, halo on zune.... my prediction: 2 years if it actually happens, we're having issues with getting a doom like game on there...

Never going to happen. The raycasting (Doom-like) game has severe performance issues as it is, and Halo is entirely dependent on true 3D rendering. On top of that, there isn't a very good way to aim on the Zune, especially with the Zune 30.

im really glad that this is multiplayer, but whenever i play [multiplayer] the ball gets stuck to a paddle or the paddle gets stuck. other than that great job, although it could look a little nicer. btw i didnt mean to complain if it sounded like it.

I don't think that can happen. MS said that its only Ad-hoc networking which means the Zunes can't connecct to any networks other than Zune-to-Zune

Agreed. Unless Microsoft or Bungie (or some dedicated fan) come up with a good, playable 2D Halo, its not going to happen. Any kind of 2D shoot would be hard to make with the Zune controls...

Constructive critisism is always good

So its been a while since I've done any work on this. Mainly because its playable, there are better versions, the point is proven [multiplayer can be done] and I've been interning this summer so that eats up quite a bit of time.
Not to mention my main computer is a Mac so in order to develop this stuff its a pain in the ass because I have to boot up the windows box, hook up the mouse/keyboard etc.

Hopefully Ill have an awesome new game out by early next year

i just have one suggestion, add a little splash of color man! just to lighten things up in the actual game play. well actually now that i think about it they may make the wireless game play more buggy so i don't know...
