Here's a 1985 Williams COMET pinball machine in action.
This game is iconic for being the first game with a single shot that can score a million points in modern pinball. It's also strange for not having a multiball feature, which was quite a common draw by 1985.
I've always found Comet's sounds and gameplay to be pretty annoying. The ramp shot straight up the middle is satisfying enough. The shot to the corkscrew ramp up the left is a very challenging shot. Spotting 1986 on the third ball lights the million shot at the top of the right ramp.
Comet was designed by Barry Oursler with art by everyone's favourite weirdo, Python Anghelo.
