Nice!
Nice pinball. Works prefectly! Could have a design more suited for space!
That was fun. Good work!
Loved the vibe of this, couldn't get the pinball going though, felt like the gravity was way too strong? Other people seemed to get it to work so it might be an issue on my side. The ball felt like it was getting vacuumed down and hitting the ball could barely get it to the first set of bumpers. Just an idea but maybe the ball speed is being effected by framerate? Or maybe I am just bad.
Cool game! Congrats!
You can't go wrong with Pinball :>
+ you made it feel very gameboy like too
Pinball is always so adictive! You did an awesome job there~
Gotta add that I'm not sure if I like the fact that you basically carbon copied 3D Pinball Space Cadet :/
Gotta love pinball! Simple but really like the overall combination of the look and the music. The controls were a bit rough though, would have liked the bumpers to be z/x or left/right instead of each bumper being on a different set of controls. But otherwise really well done!
This game is great!! Love the classic pinball, it's so much fun! and it also looks great!
Very cool version of a classic!
It's great you kept the playfield graphics minimalistic, makes the ball easy to follow. Excellent readability. Good stuff!
Love 3D Pinball Space Cadet, this was a really cool Game boy reimagining
Cheers from one space pinball game submitter to another! Great minds think alike :)
We took very different approaches aesthetically which is interesting to see.
Very smooth gameplay, but sometimes the ball would just fall through the flipper. Other than that it was pretty fun!
Feels very smooth, as if the original Space Pinball meets Pokemon/Kirby pinball
Had an Issue with clipping, but other than that good fun!
Really great de-make!
I did notice that in some situations it appears that the ball can clip through the flipper but I only noticed this once or twice.
Overall very clean and fun.
I remember playing 3D space pinball, the soundtrack was fire! Playing this took me back to playing pokemon pinball back in the day. I did find the gravity on the ball was a little heavy, played in the web anyways. nice work!
Fun little pinball game. The graphics could be right out of a gameboy-cartridge and the physics work really well.
Great presentation! Very nice graphics and sound effects, and impressive physics.
I find that the action happens a bit too fast for me to follow, especially when I can't see the whole board at once.
I love the game's idea as it is a nice throwback to space cadet, but the pinball is really hard to launch from the flippers and causing a tilt makes the game freeze. Overall great idea but hard to control (might just be me being bad lol)
Thanks for playing! It's normal in a pinball game for tilting too much to lock up the controls until the next ball. It's considered cheating, even in space cadet! In terms of the ball being hard to launch where you want it, valid feedback, cheers!
Reminds me a lot of Pokemon Pinball. Although I like it, there have been some instances of the ball going through the flippers… I’m willing to forgive this though. Bugs happen, I should know.
Thanks for playing! I spent awhile trying to make the flippers more consistent and never teleport through, but physics engines are sadly rarely as consistent as you would like.
