This is a great game at first I didn't know how you had to launch it but now I realized and its very fun. Easy to get scores of over 1 Million.

The physics issue...it feels as though the flippers are too slow or are under powered (like the ball is too heavy for the flippers and they kind of push the ball instead of bouncing it). The bumpers above the flippers seem to always shoot the ball straight up instead of conserving any of the momentum (I'm assuming this isn't intended...it works, but it 'feels wrong'.
Otherwise, excellent job, I played it through and thoroughly enjoyed the game.

Wow it's been a while since I've seen a pinball game. This one is really fun. If you are planning to make another, I'd love to see some sort of RPG element to it -- ways to upgrade the ball/flippers to larger sizes, multi-ball chances, killing enemies starts requiring 5 hits, but upgrades 'weapons' knocks it down, etc. Something to add more replay value. Still, this is a very solid game

Great game, one problem is me at pinball, lol, the ball keeping going to middle ALWAYS...
Well, well donish for the job

Cool game great potential. Really needs a little more rpg aspect. Awesome idea though. Maybe leveling up ball or something? Or larger tables?

The flippers feel kinda weak to me. I was expecting something a bit more adventurey and colorful, this felt like DOOM Pinball to me. Oh well, it's still a great game in a sorely lacking flash genre.

The problem with the physics is the ball has no real weight or gravity to it. When it hits an enemy it isn't supposed to shot straight at the angle of reflection it's supposed to get shot that way and curve downward, and the bumpers above the flippers always shoot the ball straight up despite where it hit the ball or how actual bumpers would work. If you have time you should bring a video camera to like a bowling alley with one of your friends and watch how the ball moves on the table. Oh... and the entrance alley shot on the first level shoots right into the pit X( this make me sad. Other than the physics it's pretty fun 4/5

also on level 3, the top part of the board, with the 4 circles should cycle when you press the paddle, that is the way it usually is in most pinball games. It will reduce difficulty too, which might not be the best thing but it's how most games behave.

The flippers are VERY slow, and very often when the ball strikes a surface the direction the ball flies is completely wrong.

As for the physics feeling off, the only thing I think feels off is the fact that sometimes you don't collect the coins because the ball goes too fast. And then you try to get them again and you don't get them again because the ball goes too fast.

The game is great, but pinball was always just luck. You can't predict where the ball is going to go in such a short period of time. The only skill you need is to know how to hit the ball when it touches the paddle. Maybe add some upgrades that u buy with points, or not upgrades, like you spend some points to nudge the ball in a certain direction. I also think it would be really great if the pixels weren't so big, it bothers my eyes and it just doesn't allow the best of graphics. But really, great improvement 2 ping-pong, so 5/5.

Really nice flipper, but you should do more "event" like the treasury (for exemple, the last level is a little bit "empty").
Tilt would be nice.
As said, more "RPG" like exp (-> lvl -> perk / stats) could do another good game ^^
Except that, some little bugs like the ball going ultra-fast in the hole when touching the bumbers, but not much.
4/5

I love these type of game mash-ups, ever since puzzle quest. The concept is great, but the bumpers by the flippers are off a little. The ball always shoots up, and they should hit the ball out towards the center of the playfield. Other things: multiball, ramps, some way to infuse an elemental effect on the ball, tilt, some way to slow time, some way to freak the physics out, and some way to have zero friction like an airhockey table. I love the retro look, too. If you guys want a good model for ball physics, check out Revenge of the Gator on the original gameboy. It was made by Hal before Nintendo swallowed 'em up. Old as it is, I gotta say it's the best electronic pinball I've played!

This feels a lot like a lot of other pinball games. It needs more in terms of unique content; maybe a storyline of some kind to go with this interesting "Knight and daemon" motif. The treasure chest in level 3 was a good idea, and I'd like to see that used to a better extent; more large chests in other levels, smaller chests scattered around the level. I don't like how the > bumpers shoot you straight up, instead of at a physics-correct angle. I also don't like how hitting targets seems to pull you in random, or overtly beneficial directions. For instance, one shot in level 2 was supposed to send me into the right-hand corner, but instead took an inexplicable curve and managed to hit the rock worm. You might also want to make all the 'bounties' available at once, instead of having them accessed consecutively. Nothing more frustrating than getting a bounty to kill a boss, immediately after killing him. All in all, a pretty good start.

Feels ok to me. I'd like to see some more complexity on the tables, tho... I'd like to spend more of my time aiming at some specific targets.

On top of that, there is an issue I brought up earlier where in certain stages you can launch the ball and lose automatically without being able to even touch the ball. When this happens it does not touch a thing, it simply launches either down the sides (in the case of level 4) or straight down the center and being unreachable (level 1).
