Carbineball

Carbineball is my take on pinball. It's not really that far off from normal pinballs but the main way to interact with the ball is quite a bit different. Your mouse cursor is basically a character that can bump the ball and is also equipped with two revolvers to interact with the ball from range too. So it's kinda similar to pong/breakout/arkanoid too. So like in a classic arcade game fashion, you build up multiplier at the same time you rack up points and also need to be careful not to let your accumulated multiplier be lost. You can build it up by bumping the ball but need to shoot between bumps or the multiplier won't go up. There is also a sun bumper pad at the bottom of the screen that too increases your multiplier but it's also a bit risky as ball falling off the screen will obviously be a failure. The board is basically split to three distinct section with own aims and interactions. There is a rotating bonus game picked every 30 second which will result in a lot more point than normal really encouraging you to not just keep doing one of them. And finally there are a couple of different characters and balls to unlock and use with their own unique bonuses, strengths and weaknesses.
