When I went to college I noticed that so many people were into retro gaming. Why? I don't know, and I could care less. It's awesome.

Anyone who follows video games knows what Pong is, and after seeing so many recreations (or ripoffs) of classic games on mobile I was surprised that nobody recreated it. It's aesthetically simple so I thought I'd give it a shot, but I'd make it a little bit fancy with motion control. I used the Myo motion sensor's rotation capabilities to control your user's Pong platform against an unbeatable AI, and your job is to not die. That's pretty much it, but you'd be surprised how addicting and pretty the app is.

If you want a hack that uses every API and piece of hardware available at this hackathon, then this isn't for you. But if you want something simple and unbelievably addicting, like the next Doodle Jump or Crossy Road that you somehow play for an hour, then come take a look.
