Ping Pong

ping pongtable tennispaddlegamemultiplayerrealtime

Ping Pong is a table tennis game you play online, live, with another person. Watch the table from straight above in 2D or in 3D perspective. Your paddle follows your mouse or finger, and the way you swing as you meet the ball picks the shot.

Play Ping Pong online together.

Two people take the blue and red ends and rally to 11, win by 2. On your own, play the computer. Everyone else on the board watches the match live, and the whole board can run a knockout tournament.

It runs on a shared MockFlow board, so a quick game sits right next to the work, ready for a break between meetings.

  • 2D or 3D view. Play from straight above or switch to a 3D perspective of the table. Each player chooses their own view, and the match is the same either way.
  • Shots from your swing. No extra buttons: the paddle's movement at contact makes a block, topspin, drop shot or sidespin, and the footer names the shot.
  • Spin you can read. A spinning ball shows a turning stripe. Block topspin and it flies long; touch backspin and it drops toward the net.
  • Play the computer. No opponent around? Pick a color and play a match against the computer.
  • Knockout tournaments. Open sign-up from the menu. Once at least three people join, the organizer starts a random draw, free passes fill the gaps, and winners go through until one champion is left.
  • Live for the whole board. Everyone else on the board watches the rally as it happens.
  • Leaderboard. Finished matches go on the leaderboard. Wins against people rank first, and games against the computer are counted on their own.
  • Mouse and touch. Play with a mouse on a computer or with a finger on a phone or tablet.

How to play Ping Pong.

1

Pick an end

Choose Play blue or Play red to take an end of the table. Your end is always at the bottom of your screen. On your own, choose Play the computer.

2

Choose a view

Pick 2D for a true overhead view or 3D for perspective. In 2D, the ball grows and pulls away from its shadow as it rises, so aim at the orange ball itself. In 3D, meet the ball at paddle height after a bounce. Each player picks their own view and can switch during a match.

3

Move your paddle

Move the mouse over the table, or drag a finger on a phone. Your paddle follows and stays on your side of the net.

4

Serve and hit

Let the ball bounce on your side, then swing up through it. A faster swing sends it deeper; swing too hard and it flies long.

5

Aim for the corners

Hit the ball off the edge of the paddle to send it toward a corner.

6

Choose your shot

Hold the paddle still for a soft block, swing forward fast for topspin, pull back as the ball arrives for a drop shot with backspin, or swing sideways for sidespin.

7

Win points

You win the point when the other player misses, hits the net, hits it off the table or lets it bounce twice. The serve changes every 2 points.

8

Win the match

First to 11 points wins, and you must win by 2. From 10 to 10 the serve changes every point.

Add Ping Pong to your board.

Use on a board opens a new board with Ping Pong already on it. To add it to a board you already have, follow these steps. Each copy keeps its own data, so a vote on one board never changes another.

1

Open your board

Open the MockFlow board you want to use it on.

2

Add it from the Artifact Library

Click Add anything (the plus button) in the toolbar at the bottom of the board, switch to Artifacts and pick Ping Pong under Games. Adding it does not use AI credits.

3

Use it together

Click Interact with Component (the hand button), or switch the board to Play mode. Everyone on the board uses the same app, and Reset shared data clears it for the next session.

Questions about Ping Pong.

Can I play ping pong online with a friend?
Yes. Each of you takes an end of the table on the same MockFlow board and you play live, in real time. Everyone else on the board can watch.
Can I play against the computer?
Yes. Pick a color and choose Play the computer. Those games are counted separately on the leaderboard.
How do I hit topspin, backspin and sidespin?
Your paddle's movement as it meets the ball picks the shot. Swing forward fast for topspin, pull the paddle back as the ball arrives for a drop shot with backspin, and swing sideways for sidespin. Hold it still to block.
Is there a 3D view?
Yes. Use the View switch to choose 2D or 3D. Each player picks their own view and can change it at any time, even during a match.
What are the scoring rules?
First to 11 points wins, and you must win by 2. The serve changes every 2 points, and every point from 10 to 10.

Open the more actions menu, choose Tournament and start sign-up. Once at least three people have joined, the organizer starts the draw. The draw is random, and winners go through until one champion is left. When your match is up, press Play your match.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Drag a finger over the table to move your paddle.
How do I add Ping Pong to a board?
Press Use on a board on this page to open a new board with it already on, or open Add anything (the plus button in the bottom toolbar) on any board and pick it from Artifacts. Adding it uses no AI credits.
