So you want to create Pong? Tutorial Inside

Its about time I gave back to the community. Although what I did can be done by reading various tutorials I decided to create a Pong Game named PongTGB in TGB late last night (4:30am). This morning I decided to write a tutorial for this entitled "Creating Pong in TGB in 10 Easy Steps!" Below is a screenshot of what you get (minus the particle trail - not shown in the tutorial). If the community responds well I will write more mini games and tutorials on them and also add AI and Scoring to the current PongTGB. Here is a screenshot. I hope GG doesn't mind I used some of their graphics. I just thought it was appropriate :)

Here is a Mac Build of the Demo, Windows coming soon!

Any corrections in the tutorial are welcome as well as feedback. I also want to get this on TDN but not sure how. Anyways Enjoy!

Go there (after you log into TDN) and you should be able to edit the page and get it set up.
