Trijam 149 Flippin Mad Pinball
About
Hi there!
This is a WEIRD pinball game - bare with me for this one:
- You only have one flipper and whenever you press SPACE you activate it
- However there is a twist: If the flipper is on the left half when hitting space, it moves up (rotates clockwise), if it is on the right half when hitting space,it will move counter-clockwise
- You get 100 points each time the pinball hits the bonus bouncer thingies :)
- So you need to time when you activate the flipper (as a help, there is a minimap on the top right)
- How does it fit the theme? Well you control a flipper; the flipper will make you FLIPPIN mad, cause you cannot control it as in any conventional pinball game
- You could say this is a FLIPPIN ANNOYING pinball game
The weird flipper was actually turned from a bug to a feature; I could not figure out the 2d hinge collider for the right flipper and just tossed the idea after 20 min; instead I discovered the weird effect where the flipper changes rotation depending on where it is - so there it is. A game entirely basd on a bug.
I know the game is a bit too hard and unforgiving but I ran out of time to balance the game :(
Time needed: 3hrs (coding/unity app. 2hrs, art 50min, sound effects 10 min
