It took me a while to figure out what this was. When I finally realised, I thought it was really funny and kinda clever? I can see the appeal and how it could work on mobile, with notifications etc. I think that this game would kinda benefit from 'fake multiplayer' though. Obviously, you can't defend while you're asleep though.
We couldn't really show it on the gong show, unfortunately, but, I think this is a funny and interesting idea that I hope gets explored more in some way.
So much fun and such a clever take on pong in the modern day with a global spin on it.
Enjoyed starting a game with a player from the other side of the world and seeing how many hours it would take to come back. Makes it such a unique experience where the waiting and anticipation is part of the game.
