SWIPE. SPIN. SURVIVE.
Move your mouse or drag your finger to move your paddle. Your paddle is at the closest end of the tunnel. Hit the ball back toward your opponent.
Flick sideways or up/down as the ball touches your paddle. The faster your paddle moves, the more spin you apply. The ball curves in the OPPOSITE direction to your swipe (including diagonal swipes). Spin continuously curves the ball while it travels. Each paddle hit also increases the ball speed a little. The ball can also bounce off the side walls.
First player to 5 points wins. The winner keeps their spot. The loser goes to the back of the queue and the next challenger enters. When nobody is queued, the two players rematch.
At the start of each match, a coin flip chooses the first server. Each point alternates the server. The ball waits in the center: flick the mouse or drag quickly to give your opening shot curve. You can also click, tap, or press Space to launch a straight serve.
You can also use WASD or the arrow keys to move. Spectators can watch without joining the queue. Private rooms can be password-protected.
Wins from completed public matches only. Private games do not affect the leaderboard.
