I think this may just be the retro winner.
It really shows off DBPro's potential

Or perhaps this is the game?

is there a reason why it says it's 512kb then goes to over the 1mb? not worried but left wondering why it does this?

wow, when your done it tells u u can download the code right? not bad, a pretty descent game! the a.i. is a little constant though, you could have tried beefing it up like programming it to hit back the balls from it's edges instead of from the centre, anyways nice game and good luck!

it works fine, even though the file size mucked up alittle, anyway not bad, I agree with beefing up the AI a little, 2 go's to complete is a little few anyway good luck in the comp..

ok for those who wanted the ai a little less predictable, Done.

redownload if you want.

blazer, yes it has potential for more but its been done to death.

I only made this cause 1) I had a couple of hours to blow this morning and 2) To suprise people with the DL and 3) To poke a little fun at all the retro talk going around lately.

But, several people have enjoyed it, so my job has been done.

all I changed was that the computer now trys to make the ball bounce off at a angle not straight down, If you could beat it before it should be a little harder but you should still be able to beat it.

Hey This is great! Not quite sure why its so satisfying to play but I've just been mesmerised for about half an hour playing it. I've played many similar games obviously, but some thing about this feeeeels right. Nice 1, even if it did prolly only take an hour or so do do. The simple games ideas are often the best

Yes, a GIRL who can really program! Not bad looking too hehee
