SuperPong 0.6 adds a good amount of content and fixes. The first update, is the addition of the “Info/About” section. It says that the game was created by Jazon Burneel, and that the game is still in beta. There is also a “Okay”, “Visit Website”, and “Donate! (more info)” button. The other menu that was changed was the menu that pops up when you pass a level. They added the buttons “Setting and Info” and “I think I’m Done” which is a revised version of “I’m Done”. The major update in SuperPong 0.6 is the new mechanics. Firstly, there are 5 new levels!. It is still the same were they just add more and more blocks, but there is a new type of block. Every other level contains dark blocks. These blocks need two hits in order for them to break. When you hit them once they have a nice crack effect. As usual the graphics in this game is top notch. Lastly, the highest difficulty is more polished. The paddle is easier to control. I am very excited about the future of this game. SuperPong is available through the BigBoss source.

SuperPong is a block-blasting pong game developed by Spiffyware. This game is outstanding, especially for it’s first release. The object of this game is to bounce a ball off of a paddle and make the ball destroy all the blocks. When you click on the application you will be greeted with a title screen stating the developer, and the developer’s website. Then you will have a pop-up explaining you how to play which I will get into a bit later. You have three choices of difficulty, “Piece of Cake ” which is easy, “I Think I’m Ready…” medium, and “This is Cruel!” which is the hardest difficulty. The higher the difficulty, the faster the ball will move. The game play screen is very sharp and clean. All the graphics look professionally done. Since this is the first release there is only five levels, the higher the level the smaller the blocks are, and the number of blocks increases. If you tap the screen while playing you get a “Pause Menu”. From here you have the choice to choose “Resume”, “Settings”, or “Restart Level”. The game play is executed perfectly. You can tilt the iPod/iPhone left or right in order to move the paddle to that direction. The tilt is very responsive. You can also use your finger ANYWHERE on the screen. Just slide your finger left or right to move the paddle. You can also turn off the tilt in the settings or change the sensitivity. You can also turn off the visual settings in “Settings”, this just takes away the extra flare, like the ball animating every time you break a block. There are no lives so you can play the same level over and over. The only downfall in this game is that your score resets every time you go to the next level. Since this is the first release I can only make recommendations for new features: online score board, power ups, stronger blocks, a version with limited number of lives, and different formation of blocks. This is a must download if you love playing game on your iPod/iPhone. ~~You can download this from the~~ ~~Spiffyware source~~. This app is available through the BigBoss source. The developer’s website is Spiffyware.net.
