Pinball Pioneer

We all love pinball machines, but do you know the work that goes into making them?

Ranked 7th Overall in the GMTK 2023 Game Jam! Thank you so much!

Play as a little worker inside a pinball machine who's job is to design the course!

Obviously, if the pinball-player wins the course then the pinball machine is too easy-- and the machine loses tokens! Use whatever you have available to you and make sure that the balls don't go into the holes!

Version 2.0 - August 10th 2023

PINBALL PIONEER is a fast action puzzle game where you've reversed the roles of how you play pinball -- Use what you have to make sure that the ball DOESN'T go in the hole!

Hey there,

The game is really small, have you thought about making a web version? I really don't like downloading games to play :P

I, how are you? Recently I played your game and I have to say it is good, enjoyable. I wanted to made a video about the best games of the GMTK game jam so I included your game. I published the video in youtube. I hope you like it.
