Rebound

Rebound is a minimalist arcade paddle game inspired by classic retro games.

The longer the rally lasts, the faster the ball becomes. Meanwhile, the AI opponent adapts as the match progresses, creating increasingly tense exchanges.

Simple to learn, hard to master.

About the Project

Rebound is the second game in my personal challenge to create 10 small games to improve my game development skills using Unity.

The goal of the project is to focus on:

• finishing games
• improving scope control
• practicing gameplay feel and polish
• building consistency as a solo developer
