> ** Retro Gaming Hacks, Part 1: Clone Pong, Using Only SDL (and Your Brain)  **
> One of the great things about the games of yore is that they tended to be pretty simple, and as Josh Glover explains, Pong is one of the simplest to implement. In this first article of a three-part series, Josh shows you how to clone Pong all by yourself. Josh contributed a number of the hacks in O'Reilly's Retro Gaming Hacks.

> 
> ** Retro Gaming Hacks, Part 2: Add Paddles to Pong  **
> In part one of this three-part series on hacking Pong, Josh Glover detailed how you can write your own Pong clone, using SDL. So what's next? Adding the paddles. Today Josh walks through how, with the help of sprites, you can create and animate player-controlled paddles for your Pong clone. Tune in the first week of '06 for Josh's conclusion--you'll need to add the ball and scoring next, right?

> 
> ** Retro Gaming Hacks, Part 3: Add a Ball and Score to Pong  **
> Now that we have moving paddles for our SDL Pong clone, the only thing standing in the way of some real fun is making the ball move (and adding scorekeeping). Josh Glover delivers the finale to his three-part Pong hack by showing you how to add these last two elements to finish off your very own table tennis computer game.
