We are planning to add new arenas to the game in the future. We have some ideas like adding obstacles, force fields or random events to the arena. In this update you can now change the size of the arena in the Custom and Local modes. We hope you like the feature and let us know on Discord which sizes are your favorites and why!
The inhibitors and the force field of your opponent are now disabled when you destroy his ship.

Weve got some unexpected issues and had to delay it a bit, but the 0.1 update is here. In this first big update we wanted to add some game changers, this brings the pilots. We also focused a lot on the comfort while playing the game, In Game Menu, and Fullscreen mode and some readability on the UI. The special unplanned feature is the arena size, this should let you and us experiment to plan the future of Pongarena. Please keep reading the patch-note for full details. The next big update is already ongoing and will bring more visual and options than gameplay but should make the game way more enjoyable. Still wondering what we are working on? Dont miss our open public board on Trello. Thanks for playing the game!
