COVID PONG Use your social-distancing ruler to deflect those pesky COVID viruses away from you. If any slip by, your VIRAL LOAD starts to climb. But don't worry! A bar of soap, mask, and vaccine are on their way to assist you! Make viruses disappear by deflecting them 3x each. Win by meeting your SCORE objective before your VIRAL LOAD reaches 20! INSTRUCTIONS: (1) select your difficulty level, (2) press the <space bar> to start, and (3) use the arrow keys to move the paddle (ruler) left and right.
Most graphics (except the virus) were created using the following free site: https://make8bitart.com Virus image found here: https://www.sublettewycovid.com/post/covid-19-status-changing-in-wyoming-due-to-delta-variant Sound effects were found on Scratch. Every block of code by me -- no matter what anyone else says (no, this was not taken from a tutorial or your cousin's project). The COVID headlines image was found here: https://news.gsu.edu/files/2020/09/Coronavirus-headlines-stock-image-9.20.jpg Of course, the paddle and ball idea came from the classic Pong arcade game: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pong
