Paddles and Ball

A very simple game which I made while still learning Unity and C#.

Development is not finished yet but you'll be able to play a base version of the game.

Basics:

There is no endgoal for the game yet, but it'll be a Game Over if you reach a score of -10 or below. If the ball loses velocity (e.g. when it's trapped between the Player Paddle and the walls) completely it will be a Game Over as well.

The score increases when the ball hits the paddle (+20) or the northern wall (+25).

The score decreases when the ball hits the southern wall (-25) or the sidewalls (-5).

Controls:

[A] or [LeftArrow] to move the paddle to the left

[D] or [RightArrow] to move the paddle to the right

[ESC] to open/close the pause menu

What's to come in future Updates?

Better Ball Movement & Velocity

Ball movement and velocity can feel kinda sluggish at times. I intend to improve this over time.
