Very nice. Hitting the round bumbers feel very ssatisfying!
thanks :)
Definitely different from the other entries I've tried so far! Is this most brilliant use of the theme?
Or a sneaky way to subvert it?I don't think I'm very good at pinball but since no one else has posted a high score yet I'm calling myself the champion!
High Score: 13184 (or 13182?)

I managed to spell DEATH once, AUSTRALIA once and... 'AUTRALIA' once...
Hah very nice, and to answer your question - a bit of both ;)
This was my favourite submission by far. Cheers!
Wow - thank you !!
I tried to run the game in the browser but it won't start. Got some Unity errors and nothing happens. Sorry.
Hmm I would like to try and help if possible. What browser are you using?. Also when it runs did you use the fullscreen button (the blue one on the bottom right)?
aah thanks.
Is there any chance you can try it via Chrome for Mac, I'm curious now :)
Sure. Gonna try now.
It worked. I got past the first board. I really enjoyed it. I had some serious framerate and input lag issue, but i'm not sure if it's me or if you're doing too many things in the update callbacks.
I haven't played pinball in forever I really enjoyed trying to figure out the machines :3. It did take me a while to figure out how to see my score though because its not always there o.
I set up an array of messages that are used randomly, so 50% of the time you see the score and balls remaining and 50% of the time you get hints for how to play. I figured that felt pretty pinbally, my homage to a misspent youth ;)
Hey cool game, really nice physics, only problems i encountered was the high score not saving and I personally found it really difficult to hit the top 2 letters on the second level. Great stuff though
Thanks, yeh it just uses playerprefs for saving, so that doesn't seem to persist, I'll use a more persistant method next time.
I kinda want the second level to be hard, as the first one had to be easy. cheers :)
I really liked the mechanic of spelling the word 'death' in pinball. I have never played a pinball game like that. Really cool. I had a blast!
That was my way of honouring the theme, happy you like it mate :)
It's actually not too uncommon with pinballs to have those kind of targets and collecting icons or letters for a word... ;)
Yeh we old farts with 1000's of hours in pinball parlours remember ;)
More like a hundred or more of "Loony Labyrinth" :)
I really wonder what happened to LittleWing. I wish their games would make it to GOG...
Gotcha, I haven't played too much Pinball. Played a lot of Space Cadet on Windows though!
Nice
As an Aussie, the voiceovers had me laughing a lot, well done on a good pinball game (sorry Rick's team)
Noice ;)
So satisfying to play :D
thanks, I really wanted it to feel "right"
Good pinball game! The "Nice!" SFX surprised me.
Thanks, was a fun week making it.
Cool game. I like it.
Thanks :)
