Hans VS The Remake

Hans Vs. The Remake is a remake of one of the first games I made, a pong clone. In addition to the basic clone, it recreates several games that are structurally similar to pong, such as volleyball, air hockey, and even an homage to the game “Lethal League”. The game is meant to be simple but humorous and fun.

Hans Vs. The Remake was an assignment for a class, where I was just going to do a remake of a pong clone I did in high school. However, as I worked on recreating the clone, I thought about all of the games that are fundamentally so similar to pong, and its inspiration, tennis. After thinking about this, I decided to have the remake include modes for various games within this “genre”.

The thing I’m most proud of with Hans Vs. The Remake is the juice and the humor. It’s a lot of little things, the sounds, the animation, the googly eyes, and the hectic physics of the games. I think it came out really well.
