Hey Witches!
For those of you who like playing digital, there's Steams Pins and Pegs Festival this week! That means a lot of games are on dicount and newcomers get some exposure.

My Game takes place in it and I want to highlight some upcoming games by friends you might want to check out:

PinKeep

A roguelite deckbuild flipper, where you gather resources, construct buildings on the table and defend your keep.

Ball Wizard

No pinball, but a very pretty pachinko-like with incremental mechanics (building a massive skilltree between rounds).

And here's mine Orb Orb Magi

Hi! I was speaking about the game I'm developing and u/UberBadJuju encouraged me to make a post about it, so here it is! It's called Orb Orb Magi.

The video shows some Gameplay footage, I have a trailer as well, but it's a bit older and this is the current state. If you want to playtest, I have an itch page here , though I can understand that a lot of people stay away from downloading executables directly. There will be a steam playtest soon!

I'd like to know, do you think the physics look/feel right? What do you think about the "bulletheaven" aspects (choose one out of three weapons and slaying enemies)?

Some more information: No AI was used at all (not even coding, I hate that stuff with passion), the music and most sfx is by me, character art is by me and the tilesets are asset packs. All credits are in the game under credits.
I tried to make it more realistic, because I feel like a lot of virtual pinball games doesn't feel quite right. You can nudge to both sides and somewhere in the video I managed to do a death save with it (I think that's what it's called?)
Do you know other tricks I should be aware of?

I worked on it since october last year and I hope you like it!
