Overview
GPS Pong is a game of retro pong played in the real world by running and walking to move your bat. Once you have set up the game on two smartphones you specify how much space you have and then move to position your bat to return the virtual ball to the other player.
It's a simple idea that is well executed. Although the GPS is sometimes a little slow the concept works well and you have a lot of fun running around a park playing a virtual game. Just don't be surprised if passers-by ask you what you are playing.
