Pong World wins Pong Indie Developer Challenge

Atari has chosen the winners of its Pong Indie Developer Challenge, and – surprise – the top honor goes to Pong! Well, okay, it’s not just Pong. zGames’ Pong World features multiple paddle “creatures” in various worlds with powerups and environmental hazards, and it earned $50,000 and a publishing deal with Atari.

Second place goes to MadRuse’s 3D Pong Tournament, and third place goes to Eppy Games’ Fong, a cartoony Pong in a circular arena. These two also get cash awards and publishing deals; Atari will announce specifics of those publishing deals (as in, when they will result in games you can play) soon.
