Round pong, a pong game for circular oscilloscopes

Jon Stanley writes in to share his latest project, the entirely analog Round Pong. Built to be played in a vintage Heathkit oscilloscope with a circular screen, he developed some tricky circuitry to generate the classic game using a circle generator. Schematics and writeup for both this game and a more traditional rectangular pong game are on his website.

    It’s a single player game with a radial paddle, and good & bad goals on the perimeter.
