If you’re looking for a game to scratch your pinball itch but wanted a slightly different take on the glorious—and once banned—game, check out the upcoming Throw Pinball. The game uses pinball mechanics to break blocks, and the nice thing about it is that all 75 levels are designed by hand: no procedural generation creating silliness in this game. As you can see from the trailer, the developer seems to have some fun ideas on how to offer challenging levels, and I do like the art style and palette.
If you want to break tiles pinball style, hop over to our Upcoming Games forum thread and apply for the beta. Here’s your chance to offer some advice on level design and, perhaps, change the game for the better.
