Well I would check your code at

Code:

	if(ball._x < 0) {
		oppScore++;
		
		ball._x = opp._x - 60;
		ball._y = opp_y;
		ball.dy = 0;
	}

because it doesn't reset the ball properly.

Then the ball doesn't really have any angle to its direction, so perhaps integrating some Math methods to give the ball a different direction based on where it hits the paddle.
