We consider non-deterministic initial finite automata without final states and the $\omega$-languages determined by such automata. For such $\omega$-languages, we consider the so-called languages of obstructions. We define and analyse billiard $\omega$-languages determined in a special way
for each $n\ge 3$ over an alphabet consisting of $n$ letters. Each $\omega$-word of such $\omega$-language
can be obtained with the use of infinite number of reflections of a point from the cushions of billiards having the form of a regular $n$-polygon. For such $\omega$-languages, we consider the languages of obstructions
and show that for any $n$ a language of obstructions is not regular.
