Ping Pong Attack: Return Of The Pong

Ping Pong Attack: Return of the Pong is an arcade shoot ’em up set ten years after the first game, where table tennis collides with an alien invasion. Pilot Earth’s rocket-powered ping-pong bat fighter and battle the fleet across seven planetary campaigns, from Pluto toward Earth. Cut through changing enemy formations, use shields to survive incoming attacks and collect upgrades for your weapons and support systems. Armoured ships, crowded asteroid fields and increasingly dangerous bosses raise the challenge as the campaign advances.

Gameplay and features

• Seven-planet campaign: Fight across 105 levels on Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Earth, with 15 levels and three major boss encounters on each planet.
• Solo and local co-op: Play the campaign alone or team up in two-player local co-op. Each pilot has separate lives, shields and weapons, while both contribute to a shared team score.
• Weapons and difficulty: Upgrade lasers, missiles, side ships, shields and smart bombs. Choose Easy, Normal or Pong (Hard), each with its own campaign balance.
• Escalating encounters: Battle changing formations, specialist alien ships and asteroids, then face increasingly dangerous multi-ship bosses, culminating in a seven-ship battle for Earth.
• Campaign options: Save and restore progress across ten save slots, or enable an optional timer that records your campaign time. Completing Pong (Hard) unlocks Developer Mode and the level editor.
