Curve Ball Overview
You control a paddle at the edge of the screen, moving it up and down with your mouse to deflect a ball. The goal is to get the ball past your opponent's paddle, which is controlled by the computer. The core mechanic is the spin you can apply; by moving your paddle at the moment of contact, you can curve the ball's trajectory. This makes each return unpredictable. The game starts slow, but the pace quickens steadily, and the computer opponent rarely misses an easy shot. It creates a tense back-and-forth that feels both strategic and purely reactive.
