Bounce 2 is a sequel to an Atari "PONG killer" that I'm pretty sure never existed

Bounce 2, a PC game available on Steam, is presented as a sequel to the obscure 1983 Atari 2600 game Bounce, which was intended to be a 'PONG killer' but released during the video game crash. The article suggests the backstory of the original Bounce may be a marketing tactic, as evidence for its existence and impact is scarce. Bounce 2 itself is a multiplayer game inspired by PONG, featuring characters that can jump, kick, and dash, with mechanics for attacking opponents and swinging arms to hit the ball harder.
