Great visuals, great sound, and on theme. I would have loved to have seen a little more experimentation with the game play itself, but that's being nit picky. Top marks! had a blast.

This is sweet! Such a clever and fun twist on good ol' Pong. The visual effects were great, the glitches did a great job of elevating the gameplay in a meaningful way, and I think you did a great job giving this game juice and polish. Nicely done!
