I'm currently in week 4 of the most popular course in Yale [0], but was made available online on Coursera[1]. I think for the most part I've learnt I've learnt that much of what we think about happiness is consistently shown

Interesting concept. Two suggestions: 1) Let the arrow keys be used to move the in-game paddle. 2) The "squares" where the ball has gone through, should change colours so after a while the players are able to create their own vers
