Pinly: A Plinko Roguelike
Pinly is a Plinko roguelike where your gear is the board. Weapons fire when the ball strikes them; armor triggers when it lands. Buy, upgrade, and sell between waves to assemble builds that have no business working. Then drop the ball and watch the horde disappear.

6 itemsAbout the Game
Pinly is a Plinko roguelike that combines physics-based combat with loot management and wave-based castle defense.

Slot your weapons into a Plinko board, drop the ball, and deal damage as it bounces through your loadout. The path the ball takes is never guaranteed, but the builds you create determine how much you can make of each drop.
Each run, you defend your castle against increasingly powerful enemy waves. Between fights, visit the shop to buy, sell, upgrade, and manage your gear: weapons, armor, rings, and more. The right combination of items can turn a challenging wave into a clean sweep. The wrong one leaves you scrambling.
Weapons slot directly into the board, so your layout matters as much as what you've collected. Merge duplicate items into stronger versions to build toward a loadout that can handle whatever comes next. Every decision shapes the run.
