Forays in XNA (Breakout)

About: This is a clone of breakout done in C# and XNA. I didn't have any experience with C# or XNA before I started this, and I got this game done with about 10-12 hours of coding. It isn't polished, but its functional.

How to Play
Press Space to Begin, and Resume a Paused Game (No, you can't pause it manually, Sorry)
Paddle goes Left and Right
If you get annoyed that the ball is too slow press +
After you break through each level the ball has the potential to go faster.
If you hit the ball with a moving paddle it affects the speed that the ball rebounds with, and sometimes direction (its like putting major spin on the ball, although this doesn't affect future collisions).
