## 🏆 Scoring

- **N-E-O lanes:** light all three to raise the multiplier, up to x6. The flippers shift the lit lanes.
- **C-Y-B targets:** knock all three down to light the lock.
- **Scoop:** while the lock is lit, each visit locks a ball. Three locks start 3-ball multiball.
- **Multiball:** orbit shots and the scoop score jackpots.
- **Orbits and spinner:** shoot either orbit for a bonus. The right one rips the spinner.
- **Ball save:** a ball lost in the first 10 seconds comes back once.

## 🔧 How It's Built

`game.js` has three parts: the audio synth, a `Table` class holding the geometry, physics and rules with no DOM access, and `PinballGame` for drawing, input and menus. Physics runs at a fixed 300 steps per second, so the ball can't pass through walls or flippers. Static artwork is drawn once to an offscreen canvas to keep phones smooth.
