High score competition #144: Pinball Action
kixfan:
493,140
Few thoughts:
Apparently there is no penalty for over using nudge.
At some point the bumpers are worth 1000 and certain screens are advantageous to just shoot the ball at the bumpers.
Trying to back hand any shots seem drain right down the middle, for me forehand shots only.

Thanks for picking a video pinball game, pops. I was going to do that...if I ever won a competition again...if...I'm not scared of ol' pbj Peanut Butter & Jelly's threats...
Played twice. Like it. Very relaxing, soothing, slow-paced--I can see some long long games, especially with an extra ball every 100k(?).
292,010, as usual, with 1-year-old-on-the-lap-button-mashing interference.
Thanks,

nope the extra balls are 70K and 200K then you have to get the bonus ones lit during game play to earn more of them ( getting to all tables on 1 ball - 3 strikes on the bowling pin set - lighting the proper "Extra" on the spinner in the main game and lighting the last of the circle - getting matching symbols on the fire table ) -- So there are many ways to get them but all take awhile.
I'm getting better at lighting the extra balls so score is improving as it counteracts the darn right side drain :angry:
Still can't make 1,000,000 but getting closer -- 895,670

Is that what the R G B in the lower right corner indicate? That you've gone to those tables on that particular ball and extra ball if you get them all lit?

Not positive but I think so --- they seem to have 3 states - off - (circled means visited) - and (Lit means completed - ie. 3 strikes on the bowling, matching symbols on the fire,straight flush hand on the other is completed)
and according to the Bezel instruction card warping to all 3 gives an extra ball
