Poingo by Eriĉjo (ericxjo on itch.io)

Poingo is a small love letter to 80s home computers and the classic bouncing ball demos that made simple pixels feel magical. It doesn’t have goals or scores—just motion, color, and a chance to zone out with a little useless web fidget toy. I like revisiting those old demo ideas with modern tools, while keeping the spirit of the originals, and this is one attempt at that: a tiny, browser-based homage built with C, SDL2, and Emscripten, made in respect for the old-school demo makers who did so much with so little.

Controls:

Click and drag the ball to move it - flick it to send it flying!

Click and pull back to slingshot it.

Press F to toggle fullscreen.

Arrow keys adjust volume (up/down) and speed (left/right), and Space shows help.
