PONGslaught (Original Demo)
A downloadable game
This is the original prototype for the in-development game PONGslaught, created about 5 years ago. While development on this prototype has ceased, the game is being reborn into a new full game with a new name (Sanctum Somnium), and far more in store in terms of gameplay. The relaunch is being made in a new engine from scratch, overhauled graphics, and a mission: to teach how to overcome fear.
If you enjoy this demo and would like to help make the full game a reality, consider becoming a patron! One-time donations are exceptionally appreciated too, every bit helps. I will be employing a team of very talented people to help me with this mission, and it all costs money I don't currently have. The mission commences regardless!

A feast for your eyes that keeps you coming back for seconds, PONGslaught is the rebellious, pompadoured grandson that Pong wishes never let borrow his motorcycle. Mixing elements of classic arcade top-down shoot-em-ups and the aforementioned progenitor of all video games, PONGslaught delivers fresh 80’s style action the way it was intended! Loud, in your face, and glittering with neon lasers. Experience legendary arcade action with a new twist and fresh coat of pixels. No quarters required!
Proudly made with the Godot Engine.

BUG WORKAROUND:
If anyone experiences a bug someone else reported that causes buttons to not work first try the mouse (if using game controller) and if it's still a problem press F11 to exit fullscreen and it should work.
There are bugs in this prototype, but that's to be expected of an in-development title. Please bear with me as I work on replacing this prototype with a new demo, all the old bugs will be a thing of the past.
