- I think the music and art are really nice. The biggest issue with this is the physics. I expect pinball games to have really snappy movement, and I think the ball feels too light and the flippers move too slowly. I also kept having issues where the ball was clipping through the flippers. I'm also not exactly sure how the theme is being used here
- Hum, the game was very buggy. The ball launching was closing before I could release the ball and then the ball laucher was kind of stuck and kept going down. The paddles were hitting stuff very inconsistently, it mostly felt like I didnt have much control over the game. It was also unclear what I was supposed to do, nothing seemed to matter or have consequences.

Great concept, but definitely need to work on the collisions and ball weight. A well placed hit should get the ball to the top of the board, but it felt like there was nothing I could do to get it really moving.
The ball felt quite heavy and hard to get moving, and to be honest I wasn't totally sure of the objective. Is the idea to hit the invaders with the ball? In principle that's not a bad idea, I just felt I had very little control over it. With some polishing and refinement, it could be a very fun arcade game
While the collisions in this game are hard to look past, the music is great, and the art isn't holding this game back at all. However, the gameplay is really hard to understand, partly due to the collisions, and there is no clear objective to this game. Overall, not a bad game, could use some work though.
The collisions make this game barely playable. A lot of clipping tbh
Cool blend of pinball and space invaders. The art style and music work really well together to and fit the arcade aesthetic. My only wish is that the ball moved with a little more velocity like classic pinball machines.
