# ping-pong
`ping-pong` tries to be a generic pong implementation, written in Go. It
includes a Canvas engine playable in a browser wit Canvas support.
## How to start
To play in the browser with the Canvas engine, download or pull the repository
to start the backend server:
```bash
$ go run *.go -debug
```
Then open the frontend at [http://127.0.0.1:8080](http://127.0.0.1:8080) in your
browser. Alternatively, you can use `make`:
```bash
$ make play_canvas
```
## How to play
The left player is player one, the right player two. There are two supported
inputs available: ↑ moves player one up and ↓ moves him
down. Players get points for goals.
## API
You can create your own frontend with the provided API, which consists of
constraints and helpers. After you `go get` the module, import the `engine`
package:
```go
import github.com/ndabAP/ping-pong/engine
```
To get the module:
```bash
go get github.com/ndabAP/ping-pong
```
## Future goals
- Native sound generation
- More retro style (e. g. retro GUI)
- AI-controlled player two
