AS3 Ping Pong
Click here to download the source code
This is a port of Ping Pong in ActionScript 3/Flash 9.
This port greatly improves code cleanliness and no
longer relies on the main timeline or any Flash GUI
elements, such as the library or drawing tools. Code is
organized into the "pong" namespace in a variety of
classes, mostly deriving from MovieClip, which the
"document class" Game uses to compose the game scene.
Flash player 9 is required to play due to the usage
of ActionScript 3.
As for playing the game, I quote the original
PONG instructions: "Avoid missing ball". The
only possible advanced technique is to hit the
ball toward the edges of the paddle to angle
the bounce more upward or downward than a
straight reflection, as would occur in the
center of the paddle. The first player to five
wins the game.
Have fun!
