Steve Taylor has put a new twist on Pong by using real-time fluid dynamics to drive the game environment. In this version “you can inject plasma fluid into the environment, create a vacuum from your paddle, and blast shockwaves into the playing area”. More info after the jump.

HOW TO PLAY: * To score, you must get the ball past the opposing player’s paddle * Scoring will increase the level, causing the ball to be more reactive to the fluid * To move the ball, you need to manipulate the fluid. Here’s how:Hold the LEFT MOUSE BUTTON to shoot jet of plasma out of the paddleHold the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON to suction the plasma and ball back to the paddleRelease the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON to blast a shockwave! DOWNLOAD:To install, simply drag the folder to your desktop and run PlasmaPong.exe. Enjoy! 1 | 2 (mirror)
