Impressive to see a 4 player game in a game jam. The main gamemechanic is really innovative and  graphics feel quite nostalgic This would be a blast with 3 friends. Great job on the game!

Submitted

Excellent game! I liked the vibe of the old arcade PC games. Will definitely try playing it with my friends.

Submitted

ironically reminds me of the computer games i used to play on my grandparent's laptop LOL super nostalgic and still fresh!! great work!!

Submitted

i adore this! big win xp cd-rom game vibes. i dont really have any notes! from the aesthetics to the gameplay this was a blast, and i got it running on linux too without a hitch. 20/20 :)

Submitted

I LOVE this! The music and sounds are incredible, and everything you've done with the quickdraw mechanic is amazing.

Submitted

This is neat! I can see this being especially fun as a party game. Reminds me of Space Cadet pinball as far as aesthetic goes, which is great in my book. Maybe I'll try it out with some friends! 

Submitted

Wow, I enjoyed that. I wish there was a little finer control on positioning, but I enjoyed it - it didn't take long to understand the mechanics of the game too, only a couple of rounds.

definitely a interesting take on pinball I would have never thought of this in a million years, the art is very nice and the game is polished, does the reaction time on shooting add to your score?

Submitted

This is a pretty unique take on pinball, and you definitely nailed the aesthetics of the late 90s computer games, especially Space Cadet pinball!

I love pinball and got excited to see an entry... disappointed it's not pinball lol, but really thrilled at this twist, very cool idea and graphics!

Submitted

Nice aesthetic and music. Would recommend having the layout maybe change or have a bumper at the top that shuffles the board.

AMAZING! I love the presentation, and as a huge pinball fan it's very well made!

Dang, why has it been so long since i've played a good pinball game?! Well done!

Thank you!

This is a very silly game. I think I'll keep it next to my copy of 3D Pinball for Windows - Space Cadet.

Developer

Hehehehe devilish indeed

Holy crap this game is cool. You deserve all the attention. The old style art, the sound design and music, the take on a pinball/wild west concept. 10/10 would recommend!

Developer

Thank you! The retro art style in your game is also top notch!

Submitted(+1)

Awesome execution of a twist on the pinball game. The western flavor slapped on having to shoot before your opponents really worked for me. The music is great and it would be fun if there was a way to interact more with your opponents. Maybe some pins give you traps you can set on your opponents, like freeze their gun or something. In any case, thank you for the experience! Cheers.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! We had many ideas for powerups that we wanted to add but ran out of time.

Damn this game is so original, I love the idea of a pinball multiplayer game like this! with bigger and more varied maps, this could make for an awesome game with friends! The graphics are also just great, definitely needs more ratings!! Also got a score of 9150 so I atleast beat 1 guy from your team, ha.

wasn't able to open the Mac version. Looks fun though

Developer

Yeah it is quite a faff to get it running on Mac. You have to unzip it using a 3rd party unzipper and stuff. Thanks for downloading it anyway!

This is really fun. It reminds me a lot of the space pinball game I used to play in the Windows 7 era. It's really polished and I can see myself playing it in my free time

Developer

Very powerful! I love the voices.
