My SteemPong Session Today

Hello Steemians!

AI generated image.

Today I decided to jump into SteemPong and see how far I could push my score.

Nothing too serious at first. Just a couple of games, some concentration, and a little competition with myself 😂

I played 2 rounds today, and both games eventually ended with the same verdict:

GAMEOVER

But there was definitely an improvement between the first and second attempt.

Round 1

Score: 533
Verdict: Gameover
My screenshot.

My first game was basically me getting warmed up 😂

A score of 533 wasn't exactly what I was hoping for, but it gave me a starting point. I was still getting comfortable with the game and trying to figure out the rhythm.

At least now I had a score to beat.

Round 2

Score: 857
Verdict: Gameover
My screenshot.

This time things went much better.

I managed to push my score all the way to 857 before the inevitable Game Over appeared on the screen.

That's an improvement of 324 points compared with my first attempt.

533 → 857

That's roughly a 61% improvement in just one session. Not bad at all.

What I Learned

The biggest thing I noticed is that the first attempt can really help you understand the game better.

After playing the first round, I had a better idea of what to expect in the second one. That allowed me to react better and ultimately reach a much higher score.

It also reminded me that improvement doesn't always require a huge amount of time.

Sometimes you just need to play, make mistakes, understand what went **wrong, and try again.

The goal now is simple:

Beat 857.

I'm definitely coming back for another attempt because I don't want 857 to be my final score.

Maybe next time I'll cross 1,000

For now, I'll take the progress.

533 → 857

Two games.
Two Game Overs.
One much better score.

Let's see what the next session brings.
