Post by: TobiasW on December 30, 2012, 10:44:04 AM
Take Hammerfight (http://www.koshutin.com/). Add Pong. Mix and stir. Sprinkle with a little realism and Tron.

Recipe serves 2.

You are playing Tennis. Well, you're trying to play Tennis.
You've lost your tennis rackets, so you take hammers instead.
Also you've forgotten most of the rules.

Hammertennis: A fast-paced ball game for 2 players.
Supports Gamepads! (You only need one stick. Choose any.)

Download the Windows executable (http://dragonlab.de/projects/hammertennis/hammertennis-windows.zip)!

You get 2 points for scoring a goal, and 1 point if the opponent hits his own goal.
Normally only the hammers can hit the ball - but if the ball is red, the blue player can hit it once, and vice versa.


You can also download the source code (http://dragonlab.de/projects/hammertennis/hammertennis-source.zip) if you like! It needs Python 2.7, pygame 1.9.1 (http://www.pygame.org/) and pybox2d 2.1 (http://code.google.com/p/pybox2d/).

Just wanted to let you know that after I somehow stumbled onto this, I had my friends play it, and we had a ton of fun with it! It's such a fun and hilarious game, thank you!

Edit: Maybe I should have just sent a message instead of bumping this somewhat old thread... I don't know. Oh well :P

Thanks for playing the game. I'm glad that you and your friends had fun with it, that's why I make games after all!

PS: The bumping is quite appreciated, thank you very much :P
