effective pinball game. maybe the middle area is a bit too empty
Wasn't expecting a pinball game in ld, this is awesome. Powerups fit well w/ the game. I lost a life due to monopaddle because I thought it'd be toggled on when it had just ran out, I wish the transition out of it was a bit more obvious. Nice work though, played quite a bit of this one.
Pretty fun, could be interesting if the board also changed along with the 10 second timer.
Nice job! Like the aesthetic! The blue stopper did actually kill me at one point due to a collision glitch haha, but not a big deal. Cool!
That's a great pinball game! The art caught my eye, and I enjoyed all the different modifiers. It took me a bit to get the hang on what they all did, but once I had it, it was a lot of fun! I wish the center clock was elsewhere through, I kept thinking it was a physical object that would deflect my ball. Overall -- great submission!
The idea to tie upgrades to the 10 second timer is awesome! I love pinball, this scratches the itch!
Great Game!
I feel like there are people out there who are very good at pinball. I have never been one of them. You replicated the feel of it well though! I do have one nitpick that I feel like would have really completed the pinball feeling: make the left bumper something on the left side of the keyboard like A so your hands are spread out like they would be on a pinball cabinet.
Great pinball game! Looks and feels quite polished.
Wow, this feels super polished! At one point I had a ball stuck bouncing above the upper right pin, accumulating free points. Unfortunately the orange modifier made it too bouncy and it fell down.
I love pinball! Really nice game. As mentioned by others, the middle area was a bit empty, but sound-fx and gameplay was solid. I do think that the music might have been better to leave out as it, for me at least, destroys the otherwise nice ambiance.
I was just thinking that I haven't seen a pinball game in a jam before, and along comes this!
I like it. Very polished, nice simple colour palette and legible art style, lots of things to light up and turn on and off and make satisfying sounds. I had a lot of fun. My high score was 122021.
84402, pretty fun game :D it's really polish and precise
That was so much fun ^^ my score \o/

I have to admit.. I got the ball stuck on top right bouncy circle :p I would have left it forever but the 'slowdown' effect made it come loose haha :') great game, I enjoyed playing! :)
I really liked this game! It was very fun to play and felt polished and complete. The graphics were clean but very stylish and the sound design was great. It took a while for me to memorize what the different modifiers did but once I did I had a lot of fun with the mechanics. Overall a very fun and well made game.
Different colors bring different attributes to make this game more interesting!
This is really fun! I enjoyed this game when I was just a kid, but with your new approach it become even more fun!
I like this as pinball game, nicely looking, well polished. Not very innovative, but overall it's a pleasant experience. And for some reason, probably the music and no audio-overload it isn't as stressing as most pinball games.
Really coll and catchy
My favorite mode is slow motion :laughing:
i love pinball games. way too little of them. the physics are solid too, which is even more rare
A fresh take on pinball with very pleasing graphics that fits well with the theme.
Good, solid game. Ha ha .. never had two hands on the arrow keys before .. nice! Overall well done!
Who doesn't love some pinball! Mechanics were solid. Maybe out of a videogame pinball I would have expected a bit more mayhem. Music felt a little bit out of place. Very polished entry. Surprised you managed to get all those different modes in! Solid game.
That was actually pretty solid pinball game. The gameplay feels good and I think it is an achievement that you have managed to make the pinball part this solid during a jam!
Powerups were a fun addition. I had a bit hard time understanding what each of them does but that is expected in a jam game. Also it seems that the ball can very easily get stuck in some corners - generating a large amount of points. But physics based games are always tricky to test and you simply cannot catch all of these bugs in this short timeframe.
Overall, great work!
Good old game in great new style.
This is the most polished game I've played so far. The visuals are striking and very clean, and the colors for the different modifiers really pop.
Am I right in thinking there's only one level? I want more!
Also, I'm not sure if you intended for "NAME OF GAME" in the controls scheme to be a placeholder or if it's a joke, but I wanted to let you know that I found it funny -- if you're tempted to change it, please don't! :laughing:
You can never go wrong with a good game of pinball. Just some nice clean fun. Not to much fuss or flare. I love it.
It is a very well made pinball game. I think the orange might be broken, it almost seemed to make the ball less bouncy. My only real complaint is the music, and I don't mean to sound harsh, but I wish there was a way to turn it off.
OMG I will spend all day playing this good pinball game.
Nice pinball game! The idea with different modes is also very interesting and fits the theme well.
I first played without reading instruction and couldn't understand what different colors do. But after reading the instructions it was clear. Maybe the game could have given like a short message with explanation when a mode changes (ex. "SLOW DOWN!") and that would be enough, because I imagine a good chunk of players don't read instructions :smile:
Good job!
I love a good pinball game. The theme usage was solid, the aesthetic really worked. I found the flippers were a bit unresponsive so I had to anticipate more than I wanted. But its hard to make a real-life feeling pinball game so kudos. This is a great entry!
A simple idea well executed. I liked how you integrated the theme : definitly made sense for a pinball game!
I laughed at the
