- Zip around the table using Smush's Dash power.

- Handcrafted pinball tables with beautiful pixel art.
Powers
Slow down time, aim and Dash to perform precision shots. Hit enemies and tricky to reach features on the table and manipulate the ball to your advantage.
Cast Magic Shot towards the ball with your flippers, hitting anything in it's path. Enemies and table features can trap the ball, giving you an opportunity to target them with Magic Shot directly.
Spells and Rune Stones
Learn spells to give you a unique advantage against the dungeons inhabitants. Charge up and cast them by hitting their coresponding feature on the table. Cast Freeze by hitting ramps! Cast Regenerate Health by hitting Pop-Bumpers! Launch and extra ball by hitting enemies, and many more!
Collect Rune Stones to power up Dash and Magic Shot; enhance your health, attack, and defense stats; super charge extra balls; and increase your chances of grabbing rare loot.
Creepy Crawling
Outwit the menacing monsters who are trying to stop you in your tracks. Bonk, bash, zip and zap your way through a menagerie increasingly challenging beasties. Do you have the skills to defeat them all and face the Sorceress in the final showdown!?

Demo updates!
Hey everyone!Firstly, a huge thanks to everyone that chacked out the demo and gave it a play! The feedback from players has been excellent and I'm really glad people are jamming with the game 💖Headline news is that I'm currently working on a couple of big features!Challenge TablesThese are small tables that will give you a chance to grab some rare (or maybe even exotic!) loot, you'll have to overcome a flippin' hard challenge to get it though! I have a ton of ideas for these and I think it's a great opportunity to throw in some weirder and wackier gameplay.Some examples are a Breakout style table where you have to break all the bricks as quickly as possible. The faster you do it, the better the reward! Or a challenge to collect as many coins before the time runs out! Or a precision challenge where you need to hit certain features as quickly as possible!Meta ProgressionA lot of people have been asking "hey, whats up with those acorns, what are they used for?". Acorns will be used for the permanent upgrades that will be made available outside the game. The current plan is to have something like the Collector in Dead Cells, where you can buy unlocks that can be used in subsequent runs. This might be single Spells or Runes, or maybe characters with specific starting Spells and Runes. I'm still feeling it out, so final design tbd 😅 Smaller fixes and featuresThere's a bunch of smaller bits to be implemented based on player feedback, as well as some tuning and balance.Always give some health in campfire rooms.Always give some loot in chest rooms.More instructional feedback from the characters on what to do in each room.Show health values.Ability to reroll shop inventory.Balance enemy difficulty.Balance mana required for Spells....defintely more stuff as I get feedback or discover things!Already fixed and live nowI quietly fixed a bunch of early issues that people hit and new versions were ready to download a week or so ago. I'm pretty happy there weren't too many.Fix issue...Read full article on Community Announcements (empika)Community & EventsOfficial

All about Pin-Crawl!
Hey folks, Edd from So Romantic here!Firstly, a huge thanks for the love and support you've shown Pin-Crawl over the last few days, it's been really overwhelming and I'm super happy people are digging the game.Secondly, if you've not already, join the discord to hear about work in progress, development details, and news like when the demo will be available. You can also give suggestions and feedback and chat with the devs 👍I wanted to start sharing some more in depth info about the game, and a post about how the game plays and how the roguelite elements come in to play seems perfect!Apologies, this is going to get pinbally real fast. But fear not, I'm trying to make the game super approachable and fun for players new to pinball whilst still providing a challenge for more experienced players.You play as Morgan the Witch/Wizard (take your pick) and her friendly slime pal Smush. The Evil Sorceress has captured all the villagers and turned them in to vile monsters. It is up to you to defeat the monsters, rescue the villagers and send The Evil Sorceress packing!It's a roguelite, so you'll be working your way through the dungeon map and picking which "rooms" are going to be most advantageous on your journey. There are...Basic enemy rooms, defeating the enemy rescues a villager.Loot rooms, bash down the door to the keep to grab rare rewards.Camp rooms, regain some health.Elite enemy rooms, tougher foes with greater rewards.Challenge rooms, fun pinball challenges that will reward you with rare treats.Shops, spend your hard earned cash on cool upgrades.Enemy rooms are the bread and butter of Pin-Crawl. You defeat the monsters by bopping and bashing them with Smush. It won't be so easy though, each enemy will also be trying to stop Morgan and Smush with all sorts of devious tactics.Make sure you dispel Mushypuff's noxious spore clouds before they reach the flippers and poison Morgan!Watch out for Bomblin's Bomb Balls! Perhaps you'll be able to use them against him?Careful! Th...Read full article on Community Announcements (empika)
