i found making my first pong game was easier when i did it in 3-D... Just make a cube sphere or cylinder then scale it to the size you want... first set up how you wan't your game to look (paddles feild and walls)... then make the paddels move up and down when you press keys... then make the ball in the middle move... then have it bounce off the walls and paddles... then have the ball go back to the middle if it goes out of bounds... next add scores to the game... then add extras like sound better graphics and eye candies (cool effects)...i hope this is sort of what you were looking for... step by step instructions but not acual code...well...i hope this helps
