A devilishly difficult take on Pong. 

.....

The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks: 

“SAVE US FROM THIS DEMON!"

Not a bad pong game, scoring system was quite nice and I really like the visual design. Do wish the audio was a bit less repetetive however, either by just not resetting every point or having the music change the further you get. The game becoming more difficult with every 6 points could also be an improvement since you sort of got the hang of the formula after a little while.

Hey ! Thanks for the feedback - the game does become more difficult. The demon moves faster, and so does you!
