Great presentation overall. I think it's really fun and appealing, but gets bogged down by a few issues. This may be a universal issue for the given code, but when abruptly changing directions the paddle freezes in place. It's also too hard. I love that everything speeds up as it continues, but there needs to be a cap to that speed, or a bigger paddle, as it isn't feasible otherwise. I think it would help if the speed reset when you lose a life because the random placement of the ball on reset often means no chance of catching it. But again, great theming overall, great touches with the menu and end screen.
