Video Tennis is a game that allows you to be the controller through your movements on camera. By waving your hand in front of the video camera, you can control your racket and hit the ball back. The app is a tennis video game based on the 1970s classic, Pong. It is simple to play, requiring only a video camera, which can be found on many modern cameras, computers, and laptops. With its 2D flat tennis gameplay and pixelated graphics, Video Tennis offers a piece of simple nostalgic fun.
The game provides five different playing styles and is easy enough for even children to play. It requires a small amount of hard drive space and RAM, making it accessible for most users. Video Tennis also tracks your hand movements accurately, ensuring a smooth gaming experience. However, standing too close can result in slower racket movements, and the use of large rackets may remove some of the challenge. Additionally, the game requires proper background lighting and only allows for a black and white background.
Overall, Video Tennis is a retro game that will transport you back to the 70s. It is easy to play and does not require any additional equipment, as long as your device has a pre-installed webcam. The nostalgic display adds to the immersive experience, making it feel like you're watching the game on an old TV.
