Today’s Spotlight is Demon’s Tilt, a retro-inspired pinball game by WIZNWAR and FLARB. We covered the game before, but it just recently left Early Access with new content and features.
Demon’s Tilt features three multi-tiered, occult-themed tables complete with boss fights, secret areas, and devious traps. The game features some combat and bullet hell elements as you dodge projectiles and either convert enemy bullets into magic energy for yourself, or transmute them into gold to multiply your score.
