[STORY]
In a world ravaged by war, our only hopes are placed in a magical ball that legends say can bring about world peace. The only problem is, the only thing keeping that ball from being flung off into the vast expanses of space are two seemingly autonomous tennis paddles. Luckily you — yes, you — have been granted the power of magnetism and are able to control the ball's vertical coordinate. Despite the futility of this ordeal, you have taken up the challenge to save the ball from being lost in space. We believe in you, brave warrior!

[CONTROLS]
* Move your mouse to move the ball.
* If you get a Game Over, click to restart.
* Press the F key on your keyboard to toggle fullscreen.

Neat little story. I like this game, it gets super fast and challenging! I included it in part 16 of my Mini LD #58 compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/yyWV6Dso530
