Occasionally the bumpers give the ball a speed boost and that's nice. I'd like to hear more sounds and lights and ball rebound randomness. Do any of the pinball games have multiple balls yet? Maybe that's too much to ask for a cellphone pinball game due to lack of processor speed or specialized graphics chips. It definitely is a good start, though. Look like fun.

pinball shouldn't /be/ anything. that's like saying board games should be monopoly.

Game just seems to go on with no purpose. Slow. Pinball should be fast, quick response. This game needs many improvements. Also the flipper bottoms should be fixed. I don't like that they disappear when the ball goes out of frame. Overall I give this game a big yawn. Deleted!!! BAll floats too much. Game just seems to go on with no purpose. Slow.

Nothing wrong IMHO with a low gravity ball as long as the physics are consistent. Plus it makes sense, since the object is to go upward thru the tables.

If I only wanted an accurate simulation of physical table games, that would be one thing, but for me fun comes in more flavors than that :) I don't mind that ball weight/gravity vary from game to game.

NES, i think? It was called Pinball Quest and it was kind of like a Zelda game, but you control an adventuring chrome pinball and move around the world by way of separate pinball tables, almost identical to this concept. anyone remember a game for… NES, i think?

That makes up for some sparseness. It looks like it may go even higher than seen in the video? Looks like it keeps on going vertically for quite a distance. That makes up for some sparseness.
