Now it's time to enjoy all the glory of the traditional Pong in your amazing high definition monitor you're so proud of!
MacroPong is a Pong game that uses every little pixel in your favorite monitor but the paddles and ball always remains at the same size.
WARNING: Regardless of which resolution your monitor is, THIS GAME IS HARD!!

Play with your mouse.

Benn24 Apr 2012, 14:33

I like how the difficulty rises with the size of the player's resolution :)

Fun idea, plenty of nostalgia. And yes, very hard.

A really funny concept, but the ball takes FOREVER to cross the screen. XD

Amazing.

Interesting parody on pong. But as a game it's not really enjoyable :p.

You're right; this game is hard! :O I can hardly see the ball and the players. It's also hard to get passed your opponent.

Questionably a game at all, but was definitely worth a laugh.

I should get congratulated every time i hit the ball on my 1080p screen. :>

I'm pretty sure I can hit the ball by following the computer paddle. Other than the tiny size and superintelligent AI, a pretty nice spin on Pong.

Heh, interesting. Takes far too long to get anywhere though.
