Practical Pinball

This game seems fun. The reason I'm saying "seems" instead of "is" fun is because the game is unplayable. After completing the first game and getting a game over, the dialog box doesn't go away. So each subsequent time you try to start a round, it will just instantly give you a game over. The only way I've found to fix this is to fully exit the game and start again to play another round. Doing that over and over unfortunately just isn't worth my time. In spite of this however, I am a fan of the hand drawn aesthetic and how fast the gameplay is.

Quite literally unplayable. UI is fully broken, the actual boards don't function either.

I'm never playing this again!

Quite entertaining if i do say so myself, the user interface is quite nice and i enjoy the artstyle

the best game i have ever played 🐟
