Self Simulated: Pinball Anomaly

Self Simulated: Pinball Anomaly is a pinball action game for Game Boy Color, inspired by classics like Pokémon Pinball, Super Robot Pinball, and Devil's Crush - where you must fight through a corrupted digital simulation to rescue Self, the robotic protagonist of the original Self Simulated.

This isn't just a score-chaser. It's a battle.

One Table. Many Threats.

The simulation is alive with enemies. Fight your way through waves of hostile robots, survive boss encounters, and dismantle M-Iss1-NgN-0's grip on the system - all with the flippers. Bumpers, slingshots, drop targets, and skillshot orbits give you the tools. How you use them is up to you.

Key Features

• Authentic Pinball Mechanics - A full-featured table with bumpers, slingshots, drop targets, skillshot orbits, and ball saves

• Enemy Waves & Boss Fights - Battle multiple robot enemies across waves and face down bosses to progress the story

• Nudge System - Physically influence the ball's path with nudges - but over-nudge and face a penalty. Master the Power-Nudge to defeat enemies

• Mini-Game Pinball Rooms - Special flipper rooms unlock during a run, offering unique micro-challenges and variety

• Highscore Chase - Classic score-chasing gameplay rewards skill, risk-taking, and pattern mastery across every run

• Save & Resume Anytime - Save your run mid-game and pick up exactly where you left off

• Rumble Support - Full hardware rumble for a more tactile pinball experience

• Assist Settings - Start with 6 balls instead of 3, faster ball saves, and reduced game speed for a more accessible experience

A Spinoff Built for the Hardware

Self Simulated: Pinball Anomaly is a direct spinoff of Self Simulated - the Game Boy Color precision platformer released as a physical cartridge in 2025. You don't need to have played the original to enjoy Pinball Anomaly, but fans will recognize Self and understand what's at stake.
