I know I know, "It's 2007, they want their news back..." but anyway:

Two days ago I stumbled about a small and free remake of pong based on a computational fluid simulation. Instead of just using a paddle to deflect a ball that moves through empty space your paddle can now emit a fluid and the ball flows within this fluid. All based on pretty nicely done physics.
The game is visually extremely appealing and has an enormous awe-factor to it.
Watch an example of it here and get the installer here. Remember to crank up the performance settings to get the most out of it.

P.S.: My highscore so far is level 27.

Level 31 is my PB. Can't be bothered to play this, ages ago since I've tried the game.

i need some lsd for this.

It would look like normal pong then.

Edit: it seems that it's an DMG file.. How/what can I open it with? Why's it not just an .exe?

Apparently it's for Mac.

Just joking!

First time i saw this was on Brian Beckman's interview about game physics, specially auto and flight simulation.

Plasma pong for windows.

Bad is a relative term.

oh, thanks for letting me know...i was looking a way to open that file like an idiot.

Sorry for the mac-link. I had a hard time finding english mirrors for version 1.3c because google hates language settings.

Make that 28.

Indeed.

Then there's the other side of the coin, just watch The Osbournes for proof.

Quote from Krane :

Indeed.

Thank you. Saved. I`ll spread it around.
Indeed is in the power of people, how and why they use cannabis.
Some should never use it. Some should never drink. Some should never drive. Ever. Depends on the individual.

It is 1.3b . The same version I got from PCWorld and posted up.

If I'd be a betting man, I'd say it's fake...

Ask for a beer in Saudi Arabia and see just how legal it is ;p

Indeed there are some uses for canabis, just as there are some medical uses for smoking cigarettes too.

Still, you can't convince me smoking cigarettes is any more social or pleasant to be around than somebody who sits there and drools on ganga whilst their paranoid brain spits out conspiracy theories of how "they" are using the carpet they've sprawled themselves out on as a trap to catch them...

Then again, i'm both a smoker and an ex-junkie, so obviously i'm biased.

Sounds much better than a aggressive and violent drunkard.
