About PongBallz

PongBallz is pong, evolved: a free browser game where two paddles, a wall of breakable bricks, and a swarm of physics-driven balls collide. Play solo against the CPU, pass-and-play locally, or face other players online — on desktop or mobile, no install, no account required to start a match.

What makes it different

Classic pong is deterministic. PongBallz runs a real physics engine (Box2D compiled to WebAssembly), so every deflection, brick shatter, and multi-ball scramble behaves like matter, not math tricks. Online matches are server-authoritative: the same physics simulation runs on the server, which keeps competitive play fair and cheat-resistant.

Skill matches with stakes

Players who want more on the line can play head-to-head skill matches with SOL stakes. Both players deposit into an on-chain escrow before the match; the winner takes the pot when the server settles the result on-chain. It is skill-based competition — outcomes are decided by how you play, never by chance. Read how it works on the wager matches page.

The tech, for the curious

PongBallz is a Vue 3 client with a Rust game server, lockstep WASM physics, Cloudflare edge routing for low-latency region matchmaking, and a Solana program for escrow settlement. New here? Start with how to play or jump straight in and play a match.
