Features
- Two players
- Bing allows (and requires) two players.
- Variable difficulty
- In order not to make the game too easy or too hard, the ball speed slowly increases as it bounces on the bats. The initial speed should be reasonable for everyone, and even good players will quickly find it hard to catch the ball.
