I will admit I like the music. Wouldn't mind listening to those outside of the game. But other than it just seems like a repetitive orbit and ramp game... unless there's some interesting scoring strategies I'm not aware of.

I would not call the scoring strategy on No Fear interesting. Time out the modes until you get to No Limits, then trap a ball on the left flipper and use the right flipper to loop the left ramp.

Anybody else toy with making pins in Visual Pinball? It makes me wish I could code. There's something very zen about this program.
I have two finished tables, and I can tell you it's all fun and games until you realize you have to program from scratch things such as:
  • A three ball game that starts and ends
  • Players
  • Scoring
  • Sounds when anything is hit
All of this in an extremely lovely and constraining programming language. The tables I have built have scripts with around 4000 lines of code.

 It's not a license, but one of the finished Visual Pinball tables I have released has a theme of "Terrible fanfics and random people I used to know 10 years ago".
