Description

Pong Block brings the classic arcade game to your WordPress site! This block lets users play a single-player game of Pong against a computer opponent, with full accessibility, responsive controls, and extensive customization.

  • Feature-rich inspector settings for difficulty (paddle size, ball speed, winning score).
  • Three accessible color schemes (Dark, Light, High Contrast) to ensure WCAG-compliant visuals.
  • Overlays for Start, Instructions, and Game Over with auto-focused controls for keyboard users.
  • Control paddle via keyboard arrows or big touch-friendly buttons.
  • Responsive game area and controls for desktop, tablet, or mobile.
  • Game and UI are fully localizable via WordPress translation functions.
  • No scripts unless the block is present—minimal frontend impact.
