Nudgepond is a PLYZ original arena game played alone against four computer ducks, with no server and no other players. Everyone paddles around a big lily pad in a bumper ring; bump into another duck to push it, and dash for a much bigger shove.
The pad slowly shrinks, so the arena gets tighter. A duck pushed into the water just sits out the rest of the round and paddles back for the next. Five rounds; points for every duck you nudge off and a big bonus for each round you win.
Controls
Move the mouse or a finger (the duck heads toward it) or use the arrow keys. Space, Shift or a tap to dash. P pauses, M mutes.

Tips for Nudgepond
Stay near the middle; the edge is where ducks get nudged off.
Save your dash for when a rival is between you and the water.
Let the computer ducks bump each other, then clean up.
