Very clever and challenging game! I was thinking I would win when I destroyed the core, but makes sense to be an endless game haha The audio, the feedbacks, the graphics the and gameplay were all very polished, congratulations =)
Pretty cool entry, interesting idea/mechanic, and decent graphics/design.
I found the controls a little too responsive, making it hard to achieve any precision with my movements, which combined with the fast speed of the ball made it very difficult. Maybe some slight acceleration on the hexagon would have been good? Or maybe I just have terrible reflexes ;)
Innovative idea and nice presentation. But I feel that you as a player don't have a lot of control over the ball. Mostly just trying to keep it from bouncing outside and not target the bricks in the middle. The balls missed collisions with the player sometimes. You could have increased the collision volumes logical (i.e. not graphical) thickness to make it less likely for the collision to be missed. Or slow the ball down.
Nice improvement over planar paddle! I too feel that it starts a bit fast though, it wasn't until the ball has slowed down to about half the initial speed after some hit that I was able to appreciate the ability to vary impact angle by positioning paddles appropriately.
The game's really addicting. Graphics are simple yet it fits the game. Great execution with the theme too. The ball sometimes go over the bat but regardless of that, thumbs up. :D
Very challenging for such a simple mechanic, I would suggest maybe delaying the first paddle/wall disappearance until after at least 20 or 30 seconds so the player gets a hang of the controls and physics before you start adding the challenging part

Nice mashup. I found it very hard though, the keyboard controls make movement a bit jerky. It would be better with an analogue stick, or some other way of fine movements
Simple gameplay mechanics and controls, correct graphics and good audio. This game is a solid entry. The only annoying thing is to press "R" to restart. It would be faster to just press Space xD

Had a similar idea some time ago.
This is a pretty fun little game. Maybe for mobile?

Music is nice, but very short and very quiet.
Extremely challenging until I wrapped my head around it. Thanks!

Overall, I like this entry :)
