Pinball Brain Damage
PinballBD is the Amiga’s most technically advanced pinball game. Whereas
Pinball Illusions first made multiball feasible by switching from lores to
hires-interlaced, Pinball Brain Damage usually runs in hires (640×256) with a
lot of overscan, switchable to superhires-interlaced (1280×512) for a greater
overview of the table.
Only two tables come with the game. The first, and easier one,
Hypervolution, has cars as its theme. Get a driver’s licence, tune up your
car and drive away from the police. The second one, Magnetic Whirlpool, is
inspired by B-movies. Featuring a lot of advanced ramps and tunnels, you must
avoid the monsters and sometimes play a sub-game on the LCD.
Though two tables may seem like little compared to other games, the CD version
of PinballBD comes with a bonus in the form a table editor, continuing the
tradition set by the likes of Pinball Construction Set in a much more modern
setting.
Putting emphasis on realism, PinballBD not only allows you to set the tilt of
the table, but also simulates eight different kinds of materials on the table,
with different rebounds as a result.
