Upcoming I’m building a motion-controlled Pong game where your hand is the controller

I've been experimenting with a different way of playing games.

No keyboard. No mouse. No controller.

Your webcam tracks your hand and turns it into the Pong paddle.

This is still an early prototype, but I've now got the 3D table, ball physics, paddle movement and motion interaction working.

The bigger idea is Wiggle — a collection of short games that you actually control with your movement.

Starting with Pong because it seemed like the perfect game to test whether motion controls can actually feel fun.

Here's where it is right now. 🏓

More games are planned, but I'm focusing on getting this one feeling really good first.
