With this being my first attempt at remaking a games I decided to create a game of Pong. Using Flash MX and plenty of ActionScript I put this together over the course of a few days.

I am pleased with the result and I only have one bug left in the program which is to do with the collision detection. If the ball hits the side of the paddle then it moves in a zig-zag through the paddle to the opposite end. It is currently using the hitTest() function for collision detection but I did try using the rectangle to rectangle collision detection technique. The problem that arised here was that when the speed of the ball increased it could move straight through a paddle. I think that I can solve this problem in any future development with circle-line collision detection. I think I'd better brush up on my trigonometry :)

Hope you enjoy the game though and if you find any more bugs in it then please let me know.
