🙋 FAQ
Do you have multi-balls?
No. I have tested multiball several times and decided that it is not suitable for this game for the following reasons:
- the incompatibility of top view 2D pixel art and multiball.
- frequently switch display layers (inside buildings) in the playfield.
- slow motion and pauses occur when the player does not intend to.
- narrow margins of the playfield designed for speedy single-ball play.
Are there multiple levels?
No. I believe it is more important for players to play one level repeatedly and feel that their play improves than having multiple levels in this game. If additional levels are implemented, they will be sequels.
My controller is not responding!
Only XInput controllers are supported; you can play with other controllers by emulating keyboard input with a Steam client or other software.

First of all, Z and M are the paddles, so it's a small jump from A/D or Left/Right.
Cute "Where's Waldo?" style pixel art does a great job of replicating the "scale aspect" of a Pinball cabinet.
Sound is passable - not a Williams game, but it doesn't pretend to be. But it's three dollars, and is great for a rainy day :)

This is more of a technical review.
The game supports 1440p120, which is great and not exactly something I expect from small indie titles.
Tate mode is also included, so if you have a rotary stand, use it. It's so much better.
You also get a single, mildly customizable CRT filter and a reverb filter to help make it look and sound like an old arcade machine. All of these can be disabled for a crisp, more modern look and feel.
As for the table itself, I've only played a single game to see how it runs.
That's not nearly enough to form a proper opinion.
All I can say is that 2,99€ for a single table is pretty much industry-standard.
At that price point, waiting for a sale doesn't really make any sense, so grab it if you're interested.
