Ultimate Pong

Overview
Ultimate Pong is a game by Monkey Studios. It is the second game released by the company, as well as the company's second Kongregate game. A major update is coming soon, featuring an entire rework of the game. Read more about the new update in the News section or play it here.

Lack of Updates
There have been no updates to the game since October 2019, and there are currently no plans for future updates. A spin-off of Ultimate Pong was said to be in the works at MS, but it is one of many prototype games being worked on, and may never make it past initial development. Ultimate Pong is not cancelled, it has just reached it's peak as far as new features go.

Solo
In Solo, you will face off against the computer in a race to get 8 points (the number of points required may change). You move your mouse to control your paddle, making the game-play smoother.

Duo
In Duo, you can play with your friends, or whoever you can convince to come and play with you, and see who is the best pong player. Player 1 will move with the W and S keys, while Player 2 will use the up/down arrow keys. The mouse is not used in this game mode.

Customization
You can customize the way you play with interchangeable paddles and balls! Only available in Solo. Duos customizations are automatic. They change with every seasonal update.
