Good job for your first game. It's an interesting idea to add effects to PONG. I also like the little character versions of the paddles. I'm sure your next game will be even better now that you have one under your belt.
Yeah, do be careful with how much you plan on doing versus what you can do. I know that kind of thing is slowing down my current game development. Too much "Wouldn't it be cool if ___" leads to a never finished project.
