Reviews

Hi Wade, Enjoyed demonstration of your 3dpong. Just had one comment, regarding the flash of light when the player scores, i've read flashes of light from a computer screen could trigger epileptic seizures, recommend use of sound effect rather than the light flash. thanks, bonnie.

Thanks! I'll adjust it to use a different graphic effect, and add a sound effect too. That's a really good point. --Wade
