Robbway and co. created these works in 2001; very early in the VP game. (believe it or not, his VP website from almost 20 years ago is still up here)
Starting with Minigolf (screenshot attached), it's easy enough to see why it's such a clever, original classic. I mean, just imagine-- few people at the time understood that VP could be could be used to simulate much of anything beyond pinball, yet here we have Robbway somehow coming up with this crazy masterpiece out of nowhere, seemingly.
Moving on to the rest of Robbway's pinball originals, there's lots more cool, arcade-inspired ideas to be enjoyed, with an admirable attention to detail going on. And of course, the most important thing of all... that they're downright fun to play!
Also on offer here are @HakyokuSeiken's remake of one of Robb's tables, as well as Robbway's online buddy Mike Hanson's similar work, Mr. Do! Also included is a very nice "Mr. Do!"-style remake of the arcade classic Cosmic Guerilla. (it's a standalone, not a VP game)
Note: Big thanks to @ArcAngel for helping me track these and other old originals down. His online Google archive is here.
