Nebulaflip

Nebulaflip is a space-themed pinball game on a tall table. Saucer-shaped bumpers, rockets and glowing lanes fill the playfield, and a score counter with a star sits at the top left.

How to play

1. Press the play button on the start screen and read the hint.
2. Hold the down arrow to pull the plunger, then let go to launch the ball.
3. Use the left and right arrow keys to work the flippers.
4. Hit the saucer bumpers and lanes to score; the lights and multipliers on the right climb.
5. Watch the ball icons under the score and try to make as many points as possible.

What you see on screen

• Start screen: the NEBULA FLIP logo, blinking PINBALL letters and a play button, with info, full screen and sound buttons.
• Top left: your score next to a star, with small ball icons below it.
• Playfield: saucer bumpers, a row of M-U-L-T-I lanes and rockets.
• Right side: score lights from 1K up to 1M, and x5, x6 and x7 multipliers near the flippers.

Tips

• Hold the down arrow for about a second and a half before you let go; that is what we did in our tests.
• Work the flippers. In our runs the score about 25 seconds after the launch was higher with left and right arrow presses than without.
• Do not worry if you do nothing at first; the ball still bounces off the bumpers and scores.
• Read our space pinball tips for the numbers behind these tips.
