Good Game :)
In the future, package a game as just a self-contained executable folder. Having to install the game was really annoying and is probably why you don't have more ratings. Also the "Web" link is supposed to go to a website version, not a web-based download for a windows version.
As for the game, it was pretty cool, but a bit simplistic. It was also too difficult to avoid hitting the red blocks and basically impossible to avoid the bullets once you had hit the red block. But with more polish and game design work you could make something really cool. Keep making games and you'll go far!
You should package it as a standalone, installers can get pretty much annoying and not everybody is willing to install games, ok? ;)
The game's a quite challenging take on Breakout/Arkanoid, but needs polish, specially because of the lasers and red blocks, since you can't handle the direction of the ball besides the bounce on the paddle.
The audio also starts layering after you die and start a new game, it can get quite annoying if people keep dying and restarting, so I advise you to do that.
If you polish the idea enough, it has the possibility to become a quite interesting game! :)
Cheers!
