By Popular Demand ... Pinball is HERE on the 5200

Very nice screenshot, despite being monochrome. I'm kind of a nut for pinball sims. I've collected all 3 Pinball games for Atari (Video Pinball, Midnight Magic, and the elusive Bumper Bash) and all 7 NES (including one Famicom exclusive title), and I have also started working on Genesis and SNES pinball sims. I also got the Alien Crush and Devil's Crush TG-16 pinball games on Virtual Console. It's actually fairly easy to obtain a complete pinball set for the 8- and 16-bit consoles seeing as how it's a niche genre without a ton of entries. Sadly, I don't have a 5200, but it's exciting to see a homebrew Pinball game being developed. Due to the physics involved, I suspect homebrew pinball games are difficult to develop and debug. Is this pure homebrew or are you porting existing code? Either way, it looks promising!

Problems with sound

 

Bit 3, the 400/800's speaker control can still be toggled in the 5200 to produce sounds through the TV

though i'm not getting the sounds through gtia on the console

update, final version works fine on stock 5200

 

no video mod supports audio on this game (sound through gtia)

 

maybe someone can come with a sound fix for the low budget and homebrew mod kits ? :?

2 versions available

gtia and pokey audio

(for composite modded machines)

 

*colors enhanced,

*new sound effects,

*every key on the controller used

*tilt tweaked and mapped to 0 key

 

the hardest to adapt until now.

So, is this a port of Pinball Construction Set? If so, will you be releasing an import utility to insert a users table into your engine?

 

I dont think so - Night Mission was a stand alone Pinball game released on the 8bit computers before PCS. Its not half bad.

Both flippers work.

Left flipper = controller 1 fire button

Right flipper = controller 2 fire button

The idea is to use the dual Joystick Coupler like a mini pinball machine.

 

Since _Fandal_ did these conversions for free can you post the binary?
