Cybernaut challenges players to become a curvaceous cybernetic woman and her robotic companion in a battle to take out an Ion Generator in the face of its mechanical guardians. Fight your way across a feature-slim playfield by knocking down Guardian targets, spelling B-L-A-S-T for big points, shooting the tube, or attacking the Ion Generator targets.
With only 900 units reportedly sold, this has become quite a rare and underappreciated machine; right up my alley. Cybernaut came out at a time when Bally was cutting costs with a lesser focus on resulting in a simpler rule set and more modest sound package. What really sells this machine is the aesthetic of player vs guardians in an attempt to blow up their Ion Generator for rewards. Don't let the simplicity fool you as this virtualized version plays fast and is quite the addicting score chaser. There are plenty of lighting options as well but I think the table really shines with the lights down low, ironically.
The playfield is a redraw based on a scan by @DigitalJedi084. I also redrew each plastic based on images from various sources and auction listings. The physics-side was done by the wonderfully skilled and well-known @apophis with VR provided by the equally talented @DGrimmReaper.
