Lux by D-Lord
In a world of darkness there is one single light beam flying around.
Your goal is to not let the light beam escape by using four mirrors and letting it reflect around a loop.
But there is one catch. The controls for the mirrors do not work that well and can be bearly controlled. Even if you manage to tame these malfunctioning mirrors you can only control all four mirrors at the time.
Try to capture the light beam as long as possible inside the loop and go for the high score.
Controls: Up/Down arrow keys. These keys move the top two mirrors up and down. The bottom two will move in an inverted manner.

I liked the mood of your game. It played well, and was a pretty nice concept!
One thing to add probably, would be a backing track. This would make the game seem a lot more whole, and give it that final polish.
Great game though! I enjoyed playing it!
(p.s, as an afterthought, perhaps a little animation to change the colours of the paddles? Just a thought!)
My highest score was 25, though I think I missed it because I couldn't move the mirror far enough.
