Step by step

- Move the lower paddle under the ball.
- Hit after the bounce near your baseline.
- A missed return gives a point.
Controls
Pointer/paddle buttons; Hit / return; Space serves or hits. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Look at the feedback after the action.
A useful example
An early hit is rejected; wait while positioning the paddle. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
Watch out for this
The ball-flight model is timing-based, not full tournament physics. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
