Comments:

	AfroRyan 31 Dec 2022 05:47 This is a surprisingly good retro pinball game. For the time, it was easily the most advanced example on the market, and has an evolving/progressive table design that many other video pinball games would incorporate into their designs in the future.
	Kingsombra 9 Apr 2023 01:44 hooray, more pinball goodness.
	AfroRyan 9 Apr 2023 03:32 I tried very much to make the achievements a form of "guide" to help players know what there is to do in this game, but for anyone curious, I linked the manual in the forum topic. It helped me personally in creating the set, since it actually did a pretty great job outlining its mechanics for things like bonus points and multipliers. Check it out if you aren't into "spoiling" yourself with cheevo descriptions.
	AfroRyan 9 Apr 2023 06:46 For anyone who may not be familiar with emulating Intellivision...it's a weird "remote" style controller. Thankfully, this one plays pretty nice. To start, assuming you have a standard controller plugged in, hit "Y" twice (triangle on Playstation, X on Nintendo), and then hit "R2." From there, things are simple; R2 and L2 flip your right and left flippers, down on the dpad pulls back your plunger, and up on the dpad nudges. Have fun!
	DrunkenSuperman 14 Mar 2024 09:01 Great for its time but man, what an unforgiving table this is.
	Sails 30 Jun 2024 13:01 This achievement set has really helped me appreciate this game. It has some brutal shots but I've come to enjoy its physics and risk management.
	AfroRyan 1 Jul 2024 04:11 Thanks for the kind words. I'm truly impressed by this game's ambition considering the time it was released. Every layer of the table has multiple things to do, and the devs clearly had high expectations of their players. Earning an extra ball alone takes a huge deal of dedication, skill, and luck. It was certainly a fun game to develop a set for, and I had a fun time completing it in Softcore with save states. I wish you the best of luck if you plan on Hardcore Mastery.
