I'm looking for cook book pinball game algorithms (bumbers, flippers, etc). Does anyone know of such a resource?

I think it would be interesting to make a pinball-ish motion sensor game- tilt to move the ball. (alternate link; HyperHacker beat me to the idea. =) The buttons could be used for interactive board features.

Not sure. There was an off shoot of visual pinball that I think was open source. I do not recall the name. Doing a quick "pinball source code" search

You could also search google.com/codesearch for pinball.

I am going to need simular code. I am working on a labyrinth game for the motion sensor that will have different wall types and obstacles.
