Pinball Dreams just got a follow-up, called Pinball Fantasies. This is the best
electronic pinball I've ever played (my previous pinball favourite was the
good, old David's MM).  This game was in fact coded by some swedish demo-makers,
and the ball moves very realistically.

For the other amiga owners out there, I can tell that I have made a pac-man like
game in 100% assembly that I have released with source to some sites. It's called
snackman.lzh and snacksrc.lzh (the source). It could need some more work, but it's
playable as it is. Check out amiga.physik.unizh.ch or ftp.ludd.luth.se.
