Fun Fair Gun Shoot



Version: 1
Category: VP 8.x - Counter Top Games

Author(s): Patrick & tiltjlp

Description:
Patrick played this game in Paris, and obtained images and rules information.
A really fun game with an adjustable gun. The faster you have the pipes spin, the higher your score. You got 20 shots to test you aim and timing.

Glad you like the game, most of the credit belongs to Patrick. We made a good team, he dreamed up all sorts of oddball things and we'd figure how to make them work, and I tested the daylights out of them to assure they did what we wanted, If you like unusual games, you might check out my trade stimulators.

I've never played a trade stimulator until this morning when I thought I'd try some of your creations! Well, I am hooked! they are mindless fun and an interesting piece of history! While being similar they all play vastly different. I really like that bob killer of yours, the one with both the flippers and flipperless design! This pin proves it's not graphics or whiz-bang effects to make an enjoyable pin! And it's tough too! I've yet to get all those drop targets! They seem like older creations, and although they are repro's of antiques they still hold my attention! Thanks for all of them! cool.gif

Hopefully I can find useable images of more trade stimulators to make. They are very hard to win, but like you said, they're fun. Bob's Nemesis is the table I'm proudest of, because I was told it couldn't be done. What I did when testing it was to block off the drain with slignshots set high enough to rebound the ball back into play. The ball usually went back up the out lanes, but eventually I was able to drop down all the targets, so I could see the flipperless mode. If you want to try that, just Save As the table with a different name and use the new table to experiment,
