Fun little game! I really like the idea as well :D

Confusing at first but I eventually made it to the end so it must be a good game. Good job. Impressive use of GMS. Great sound design.

Cool idea! It took me a bit to get a grip of the layout, so small and rich in details, but that was a problem for even in te real flipper machines in the arcade, so a testament to a perfect execution. Great game

So a mix between Pinball and Breakout (or as was mentioned in that play-through video Arkanoid) ?

Cool. I only wish there was a non-Windows version of it that I could play...

I had a blast playing this, I made it to the end (in part because I was enjoying myself).

One thing I wish it did was improve on the pinball genre, because it didn't feel like this had that much new to offer.

Overall, very polished experience, the visuals and sound effects really bring it together.

Oh my gosh much I played breakout and digital pinball as a kid.  Here you go, fusing two childhood faves together.  The visuals are gorgeous and I love the sound effects, too.  I'll have to keep playing this one!

I will certainly be playing a lot more of this. I really loved the fusion of Arkanoid and Pinball! The graphics and smoothness of the gameplay were fantastic too.

Breakout meets pinball! This is a great reinterpretation of the mech genre that keeps a bunch of the fun elements you'd expect, like battles and building destruction, but puts it in a completely new context. On top of that it's really polished and the sound design is great. Fantastic work!

If I had to come up with useful feedback, I'd admit that it took me a few tries before I understood all the various game elements, especially the matrix-display minigame. After I could read the game board properly it was pure fun though! Perhaps the chaotic nature is just part of the pinball genre.

The visuals are amazing, and overall a very fun and creative game!

Wow this is very well done!  You really captured the pinball feel in this.  I also like the idea of playing with a brick breaker paddle instead of side paddles.  The sounds, camera shake, and the lights all came together very well! Very fun to play!

A bouncy Paddle is definitely easier to code ;)

Glad you appreciated the light show, etc.. - I'm a fan of cool pinball tables so getting that right was a priority
