It's an okay port. If you play it you need to throw out any muscle memory from the original. The gravity on the ball is lighter than the original. And with every successive bumper it they weaken. To the point if you hit a bumper it won't throw the ball at all, just fall and you'll lose. Glitches are super prone hitting the wormhole. A nasty glitch happens if you quickly hit a mission and the ramp and it forces you to redo the whole thing. Only 2 balls. Just play on pc

Hyperspace sounds don't exist, looped song rather than full, flag hitbox is too large, ball and arms are smaller, blackhole doesn't work, lights and mission points also reset when they aren't supposed to after ball falls out, arms also only launch ball vertically, launch ramp is also smaller, re-entry lights deactivate when passed through again which also isn't supposed to happen. I imagine none of this is going to get fixed. It's good for cheap nostalgia, other than that it's unplayable.

Pure nostalgia. Update bringing my review from 5 to 3 stars because it's becoming apparent the game has been coded to throttle the score. I've noticed that if your score increases sharply the ball will noticeably slow down and gravitate towards the bottom unnaturally. Additionally some bumpers will not trigger despite the ball sitting directly on it. The mission accept ramp becomes unnaturally hart to hit once you hit the mission select bumpers and the mission targets even harder to hit.
