Remarkable: The most impressive part of this game by far is the use of sound. I think the music is really fitting for this type of game, and the bounce sound effects work really well.

Needs Improvement: This game really needs some sort of in-game explanation for how the controls work. I almost stopped at the first level because I didn't even realize I could rotate the paddle until I read the other comments posted here. Additionally, the fact that you can control the other obstacles, rather than simply being breakable blocks, is cool, but very counter intuitive. I stumbled upon that purely by accident since it was never said in the game.

Successful: I think the game is a really interesting take on the block breaker/pong designs that we went over in class. While there are some similar elements, the end goal of escaping the box is much different than in other games.

General: While I think the concept and the design of the levels/code are all superb, the game itself feels a bit janky and hard to play. I gave up at level 2 because I just found it far too frustrating to try and control two paddles at once while trying to randomly predict where the ball would bounce. Along with in game instructions, like I mentioned earlier, I think the game could really benefit from some tuning so it doesn't require very precise bounces.
