nothing to offer.

The game could be nice but it does not work. In fact, the ball does not start at the beginning of the game. We can only move the two players. Besides, the player with the mouse can move faster than the one with the keyboard.

Works well on R2011a, the mouse player sure has a big advantage but it's easy to change that if needed. Other minor issues are the ball speed which is sometimes too slow and lag... but anyway it's just a script for fun :)
