Wallace and Grommet:)

 A wonderful claymation show with great characters and plenty of machinery and Rude Goldberg contraptions that could be implemented into a pinball machine.

Imagine this, you are the ball and you have to escape the table! You can thank me later. :bar2:

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I only plan on doing pinball games based on 80s and 90s arcade classics (plans might change one day though).

Wait, what? That doesn't make sense!

Hey guys! It's been a while since I last posted here. Just an update: I could try to learn how to design a pinball table in VP, but the problem is I don't know how I should design the table since it's not my thing. However, I could still do something in making a pinball game in VP, I may try to implement the music into the game.

Anyway, I might have ideas for games (or versions of games) not in arcades. Like maybe some titles that are usually on Mac systems only (I don't own a mac, but I've seen some videos of games only on those systems before on YouTube).

 

And yes, I still plan on getting 80s and 90s games from arcades into pinball form. The Bubble Symphony pinball game, I don't have much ideas for mechanics for this (i'm not that great at thinking of mechanics in games of any kind anyway), but I can take ideas for those from you guys on pretty much ANY game that I want to make.

 

By the way, any pinball table that I make, whether it is for VP or FP (however, I don't plan on making tables for FP since it is outdated at this point), I may make a preview or game play video of it on YouTube. I am not sure if I said that before.

there is never a lack of names and themes for games.... the issue is someone willing to code the games...
this will sound like a broken recorded but i have tables in the works for years and no one has taken on the task of coding them... 
I have a Nightmare Before Christmas and a Slayer table that I could convert to VPX at any time... but finding someone that would take on the huge task of coding originals is a whole other thing...
so most times I wind up rethemeing existing tables...

Hope all is going well for you and family.

Whatever happened to your Nightmare Before Christmas table?

Looks outstanding!

If anyone wants to finish/convert this PM me. I started this a long time ago and never finished. When you get to the lower level mummies chase the ball.
