SharpShooter



Version: 1.1.0
Category: VP 9.x Recreations

Author(s): Rascal

Description:
Shoots hard plastic balls with a "blower" vacuum system at moving and stationary targets. Shooting Gallery.
SharpShooter, Bally, 1/61, shoots hard solid plastic 11/16" balls using a "blower" vacum system, hitting individual targets that move back and forth and that fold back when hit (the targets are essentially metal pinball drop targets). Cabinet dimensions are 67" long by 45" tall by 25" wide. Sharp Shooter has four rabbit targets (stationary, 10 points each), three large squirrels (constantly moving left to right, 10 points each), three small squirrels (constantly moving left to right, 20 points each), and one fox (moves back and forth switching direction randomly during the second half of the game, 40 points). The game is timed (operator selectable for 40 or 50), but the player gets 20 shots minimum. If the timer get to 40 or 50 and there are less than 20 shots made, the player can take as much time as desired to shot their 20 shots. If the player shoots quickly, more than 20 shots can be made in the given time (game ends when the timer gets to 40 or 50). The game is capable is shooting about one shot per second. The timer is incremented each time a switch is closed on the squirrel track (the six squirrel targets are on a bicycle chain which moves using a motor), which happens slightly faster than once per second. If the player gets enough points (operator selectable from 500 to 800 points), a free game is awarded.

Converted from VP8.

haven't fired it up yet but judging from the screenshot the green transparency isn't gone around the rabbits?

Pretty sure that's supposed to be there given how they're pop-up targets being shot at all the time. Without a border they'd be broken after about half an hour.

I loved the VP8 version and can't wait to play this one! um I don't understand what you mean by 'broken'? How can they break in vp?

Thanks you all, this one worked pretty good off the bat in vp9, just had some minor graphic anomalies.

Yes the green border is normal on all the targets, this is the way the real machine is.

You can get the rules and control information if you press "r". The ball shoots with the shift keys and you use the number pad 1 through 9 (except 5) to aim the gun.

This is a great game to break out the old joystick on with xpadder or joy2key.
