YOUR MISSION

Make the star go nova. Follow the hints, hit the targets, and watch as the star grows ever-bright and eventually collapses in upon itself.

NAVIGATION

• The LEFT and RIGHT SHIFT keys control the flippers
• The SPACEBAR launches the ball and nudges the table.

TABLE FEATURES

• Mission: Hit the targets indicated in the LED display, and as flashing table lights.
• Safe Mode: A 30 second grace period where a free ball is launched on a drain.
• Multi-ball: Complete the "Matter Jettison" mission to release the second bonus ball.
• Tilt: You don't score points and the flippers won't move until a ball is drained.

RUNNING

You have two options to run the game.

1) Install the Löve game framework yourself. It registers ".love" archives with your system: simply download and open the ".love" file from your file manager.

2) Download one of the fused packages (Win64, Linux) that come bundled with Löve: extract the ZIP and run the executable — NovaPinball.exe (Windows) or bin/NovaPinball (Linux).

Löve runs in a sandbox, that means the code does not have access to your personal documents or system files.
