Random Question: Pong
J_J
10 May 2018, 08:48Okay. So, I don't know what I'm doing programming-wise, so I'm mostly feeling out if this is even possible with quest. My vision is having a scene where there is a pop-up menu within which you can play a simple javascript program similar to the old school pong game. Is that a thing that would even be possible?

10 May 2018, 12:08I guess the idea would be having a pop-up like this:

But with the Javascript pong game inside of it. I am having trouble wrapping my head around how to do this.

Putting the game into Quest would be pretty simple. The difficult part is coding the game. I do not doubt it is possible, but some tricky JavaScripting.
