This is a nice and simple iteration of a pong game with solid execution! The ball movement pattern was engaging and made the game quite challenging and fun. I only played against the AI, and it took me two tries to beat it. However, the next thing to add to this game would be more recognizable wave patterns. Currently, it doesn't appear that the ball is following a discernible pattern and seems somewhat random in its movement. With a more easily identifiable pattern, the game would shift from relying on reacting to a random ball to actually predicting wave positions, making it more strategic. The core pong mechanics work well and provide an enjoyable challenge. Overall, a decent entry.
