I am wondering if the phrase "flip out" is used in an idiomatic sense in the following sentence (used as a title) from the description of the game Infinity Pinball:

Flip out and go retro

In this game the old-school arcade action goes on forever

Here is a description of the game from Google Play:

Infinity Pinball delivers a revolutionary twist on the pinball genre - so the fun never ends! Served up in a nostalgic retro-style, these infinitely long procedurally-generated pinball tables live inside a virtual Pocket Game. You can continually play your ball up the table levels for endless fun as you win coins, collect unique balls and unlock new tables.

"Flip out" generally means for someone to demonstrate some degree of mental instability. Here it is simply playing on "flippers" being the usual name for pinball levers.
