More about this game
Pickleball 5-Point Dash is a top-down sports game where you face off against a computer opponent on a walled court. The goal is to rally the ball back and forth, scoring points when your opponent misses the return. The opponent's movement speed adjusts based on their current score, starting at a maximum speed of 656 and slowing down slightly as they gain points. The match immediately ends when either you or the opponent reaches exactly five points.
Tips
- Hitting the ball with the outer edge of your paddle adds up to 0.06 spin and sharply changes the return angle.
- The ball's speed increases with each hit, reaching a maximum velocity of 1320. Stay near the center line to give yourself the best chance to react quickly.
- Use your paddle's momentum to your advantage. Moving your paddle in the direction of your swing adds up to 38 percent of your velocity to the ball.
FAQ
- How do I win the game?
- You must score five points before the computer opponent does. The game tracks the current score at the top of the screen, and the first to five wins instantly.
- Does the opponent get harder to beat?
- The computer opponent's movement speed actually scales down slightly as it scores points. It starts with a maximum speed of 656 and drops to 560 once it scores three points.
- Can the ball go out of bounds on the sides?
- No, the ball will bounce directly off the left and right walls of the court, retaining 94 percent of its horizontal speed and keeping the rally going.
