Nikpong
A downloadable joke game for Windows
For everyone playing this:
I hope you enjoy this small silly project (which is basically pong but different) I made this using pygame toolkit and some help from ChatGPT (I am not that good at coding, but my own skills were good enough to fix mistakes AI made, the code isn't well-structured, but I think it doesn't matter as long as everything works fine). By the way, Niko's collision with bottom and top part of pancakes is intentional (well it wasn't initially, but it was too funny not to keep).
Controls:
W and S for moving left player's pancake/paddle.
Arrow up and down for moving right player's pancake/paddle.
P for pause/unpause.
R for resetting the score when paused.
and maybe there's something else?
Modes:
For now there are 2 modes:
Classic.
Acceleration (turned on by ticking the box on game startup, it is also experimental, so may be buggy).

Made by Egorassy using OneShot (by Nightmargin and more) and Deltarune (by Toby Fox and more) assets (and making some myself).
Have a mindblowing experience!

Install instructions
Preferably use Winrar or 7-Zip to extract files (I personally used 7-Zip) and put them in separate folder.
For exe version (janky_nikpong) you just have to extract everything from zip into one folder and you are good to go, open the .exe file.
For python version (python_nikpong) you need to have python installed as well as PIL, pygame, os, tkinter, ctypes, random libraries (I forgot which are preinstalled so I listed them all). After extracting files from zip into one folder I think you are good to go, open the .py file.
It might take a bit time to boot.

I have new version out for a while, but antiviruses keep showing False Positives, I am trying to deal with this.
I didn't really succeed with removing most of them, but I still think I should publish it
What an incredible game! An absolute masterpiece! Seamlessly blending the charm of the original with ingenious creativity. From the captivating storyline and immaculate storytelling to the meticulously designed puzzles, every aspect reflects a labor of love. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring, making it a must-play for any true OneShot enthusiast. Kudos to the talented creators for crafting an experience that feels like a genuine extension of the beloved universe!
I restricted access to this project, because it has too many false positives on VirusTotal. If you are reading it, it means I made it public again (probably removed most of false positives)
Update: I changed the zip file and contacted some AV vendors, previous zip wasn't malicious and none of functionality was changed, it is just that I only managed to get less false positives with this new zip.
Update: Today I unlocked the page, but update is postponed since I'll have to go through same process with update zip file too. But it is definitely coming someday.
