How does the game fit the theme?
The player needs to reach a point threshold in order to keep playing. When the player loses the ball, they lose points, risking a Game Over.
Increasing your multiplier improves your score potential, but also increases risk, as the penalty for losing a ball is also increased.
The Multiball feature dramatically increases your risk and reward! The player's points scoring potential, and potential loss for losing balls are both increased greatly by this feature.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
None. We made everything ourselves.

Hey I thought I asked about your pinball game (I made the cat build your own pinball) and I thought you sent me a github repo with some flipper code. I am working on reworking the physics and I cant find your comment
Nice and addictive Pinball Game! Great work!
Cool idea using a time mechanic instead of a limited ball count
This is some pretty good pinball. I really like that you can shake the machine and that you can have multiple balls and hit things to increase your time limit. The game looks good and sounds good too, and is pretty fun. The ball got stuck a few times, and shaking it didn't work, but other than that the gameplay is great
Pretty fun little pinball sim! I found it a little difficult to hit the left side ramp and the multiball ramp, but the added difficulty did make those few successful shots all the more rewarding. The tilt mechanic was also very helpful getting the ball back in play when it got stuck up top.
Good job!
I'm not entirely sold on this fitting the theme, but you did sure make a fully fledged complete pinball game, which is fantastic!
Polished gameplay and very addicting !
True classic, played for way too long
Classic pinball! Fun sounds, easy gameplay. Spent time trying to top my score. Nice entry!
I see pinball, I play pinball. I like the idea of how risk plays into the gameplay but I wasn't good enough to make many decisions about risk. I just flap the flaps and the ball goes where it may. Anyway, great job, it's a very well made game and I had fun. High marks!
Nice game. Physics and mechanics were really good.
Nice pinball game. Controls are very intuitive, i figured out it without tutorial!
It a pinball game, I like pinball games
Fun game! The shake feature is very helpful.
Pinball is always fun. This is my first game jam. It would be cool if you rated and commented. :D https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-14/rate/3851809
it's been a while since I played any pinball -- so fun!
Nice work! I do love some pinball!
And thanks for including the shake board button, I seem to be really talented at getting the ball stuck somewhere haha
Always love some kind of pinbal!
I mean, its pinball...
I love pinball -- I did encounter a ball which got stuck and I couldn't do anything after that. It'd be nice to have a "bump the maching" button to jar it loose.
