Absolute Pinball

After producing a series of great in-house produced pinball games, Entertainment of the 21st Century opted to outsource production to a tertiary party, Sweden UDS, for instance.
Absolute Pinball has four distinct tables with diverse themes, including the Deep Sea, Hollywood, Paris-Dakar rally, and Baseball. The two-dimensional scrolling plan-view is available in two VESA and three VGA: 480 by 640, 640 by 480, 320 by 240, 320 by 400, and 360x270. The option, ""VESA Flip,"" turns the tables to right angles. This is a non-scrolling exhibit, although it necessitates turning the monitor towards itself. The ""VESA Norm"" scrolling resolution, which displays roughly two-thirds of a table at an instance, is the second-best and recommended resolution. The dot-matrix exhibit, which is located at the base of the desks, takes up space.
Absolute Pinball can accommodate about 8 gamers. The games are all 5-ball amusement and the top five scores are recorded. It is possible to re-set the high scores, but they will default to the preset scores.
Up, Right and Left nudges can be applied to tables. Pre-set keys 1-4 can be used to quickly change the screen resolution. As a bonus, the game features a different setting for a multi-ball frolic as well.
The gameplay is more sophisticated, with more updated features and better graphics than other similar games at the time. Because of the ball's mechanics, the ball moves at an abnormally slow pace.
The shooters are placed back somewhat, exposing a section of the order rails to aim impacts where the ball falls off too forcefully and generally arches outside of the extent of the stumps, forcing you to halt for the round to finish. It was released for DOS in 1996.
