Uuuh very nice game. The ball behaviour feels good and the art is charming. Cool that you added even boss fights.
The boss fights are a bit lacking though ... but I like them anyway =)
Thanks for playing!
bro good job, i love pinball games, its impressive, and when i want play a pinbal game i return here! it's super!
Thank you very much. Appreciate your feedback!
As an avid pinball enjoyer this game was so well done! The visuals and use of the theme was really good and I just wish there were more levels!!
Great to hear you liked it =)
I might add a few more levels in the post-jam version. We'll see.
Thanks for playing!
This game is so polished it's insane, really, congratulations. The visuals are beautiful, the game itself is very cool and refreshing. I think the only thing strange is that after completing the game I played it again with cheats and just spammed the space bar and won, pacman was zooming in the air and I didn't even need to do anything. I don't know if it's intended, if it's a cheat feature, but I really liked it anyway. This game is amazing, great job!
Ohh, you found the half-baked, experimental slingshot mechanism!
That wasn't supposed to be enabled in the final version though =)
Appreciate your praise about the polish. Thanks a lot!
what a sweet game. I don't have anything to add really, except for that I wished I could control the launch strength of pacman a bit. thanks for reminding me that I actually enjoy pinball games :)
Good idea. Will consider it for the post-jam version.
And, yeah, pinball games are still fun =)
Thanks for you feedback!
I also enjoyed this game a lot. One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is the inclusion of the cheat system. It's a great throwback to old games with cheats that effect the graphics and gameplay (like big head mode for example) but also doubles as a nice accessibility feature, so nice work on that too
Nice to hear you appreciated the cheat mode.
Thanks for
cheatingplaying! =)very nice game, had a lot of fun.
Thanks for playing!
Very well made, enough so that I thought this game had been made by a team of at least two. Very juicy and and enjoyable play, and I liked that it introduced 'twists' later on such as the multiple paddles to keep it from getting stale
I kind of invested time for two ... does this count? =)
Great to hear you liked it!
This is amazing! The graphics, the polish, the audio, the little ball squeeze, everything. The controls feel very responsive. I loved playing through this.
Wow, thanks for all the praise!
I really like adding small things like this ball squeeze. Doesn't change the gameplay at all, but makes the game so much richer.
Great to hear you loved it!
I gotta echo everyone else, the game is very polished and feels really good! I like the multiball and multi-paddle levels. Well done!
I really wanted to add a "MULTIBALL" voice SFX for thatlevel. I so loved that in the arcade back in the day. But, alas, the jam deadline didn't allow it =)
Great to hear you liked it!
aw yeah, that would've been so awesome! On the very rare occasion where I actually unlock a multiball, its always so hype with the lights and voice
What a clever game! I loved it. Pinball is a classic, and there was a ton of polish here. Also, I loved the Godot loading splash, that was a nice touch.
Appreciate you liked the splash screen =)
Thanks for playing!
I'm surprised we haven't gotten more pinball games in this jam, and I'm just as surprised to find one as polished as this one! The moment I realized the main menu was in sync with the music I knew the game was going to be juicy, and it most certainly was. A simple, but very, very fun game! I selfishly wish there were more levels!
The sync between music beat and animation is actually one of the things I like most about this game =)
So, I appreciate a lot that you mention that!
And I usually release a post-jam version. I might add a few more levels. And do some needed fine-tuning of the existing ones. We'll see.
I really liked your submission. I somehow forgot about pinball games! But this brought back a lot of nostalgia!
Really polished, and really satisfying flipper controls and interactions!
Well done :)
Yeah, I loved those games back in the day too =)
Thanks for playing!
What an amazingly polished game! The one where you have 2 characters and 2 sets of those lever thingies was the hardest for me!
Thanks for your praise!
I actually wanted to create a level with even more flippers in it ... but time was running out =)
Love it. Super polished feel, and just a real fun game overall!
Thanks for playing!
In hindsight, I should have added a Gelatin level though ;-)
Entries bringing a twist to classics feel perfect for the jam's theme, and the game feels very polished
Well done !
Tried my best to find an interesting and fun crossover.
So, very happy to hear you liked it! =)
pretty cool and fun game you cooked here! good job!
Thanks for playing!
Very juicy and a cool homage to some classics. I don't like pinball at all but this was pretty fun
Not a pinhead, but still tried it out? Appreciate that a lot.
Thank you!
Very fun and addictive little pinball game!
Thanks a lot!
