Megapong

Megapong is a small single-player Pong game for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis! It was coded in C using the Sega Genesis Development Kit (SGDK).

NOTE: This project will not work with the latest version of SGDK (1.80), only with 1.70.

The game is free to download and play, but a small donation of $1 will get you the fully commented source code! I've deliberately kept the game simple, so that it can serve as an entry project for anyone interested in coding a game for the Mega Drive.

It shows how to:

• Place tiles
• Move and animate sprites
• Collide sprites
• Add sound effects

And more!

I have also written a full step-by-step tutorial teaching you how to create the basic version of the game. You can find it here on my website, along with other tutorials on Mega Drive programming!

I hope you enjoy the game and if you end up using the code to create something cool, make sure to let me know!

Also, check out my Megarunner project for something a little more advanced!
