DIRT DIGGER
*******************************************
Hit the Bumpers to find new lures or baits, giving you the ability
to fish more species of freshwater catches.

The Display near the left flipper indicate which lure you have found.
The number on it is the indicator of the fish to be attracted by this lure.
The higher the number is, the tougher the fight with this fish will be.




THE BALL SAVER
*******************************************
You can loose your ball up to 3 times before the drain
gobble it. You can recharge on BALL SAVER by Hitting
the far left lane trigger.




IMPROVE LINE RESISTANCE
*******************************************
Lit all 4 L-I-N-E triggers to equip with Superior fishing Line.
This give you the ability to go after any size of fish without
too much of a fight!



GO FISH!
*******************************************
Place the ball at the top of the middle bumper for a fishing session.

Troll for fishes : Toggle left and right flippers
until the Floater sink, hooking a fish.

Reeling : Again, toggle left and right flippers.
You have to balance 3 things. The line tension, the timer and the fish distance.
The Bigger the Fish...the more frail the line might be..so careful..


The DMD will give you the Stats of your catch.




THE MARINA
*******************************************
Lit F-U-E-L to start the Boat traveling target.

Hit the Boat traveling target to move forward the
scenery (mini scrolling playfield). The Deeper you get,  the bigger is the
value of your catches when you go to trade them At the FISHMARKET.




THE FISH MARKET
*******************************************
That's where the big Payoff is! Clear all 3 targets of the wood
ramp and make your way to the bucket to weigh your catches.




TODAY'S SPECIAL TARGET
*******************************************
When all 3 lights are lit, Everything you weigh at the
FISHMARKET count DOUBLE.




CHASING TACKLE
*******************************************
Hit the lit T-A-C-K-L-E target for an EXTRABALL.




THE HIDDEN TRAIL
*******************************************
Knock on the REEL will show you the path to the Multiplier.



BLAST FISHING MULTIBALL
*******************************************
When the TRAVELLING TARGET is on, HIT the TNT Sticks
behind the FUEL targets. Then BOoMm!!!!



Share with all and mostly Have Fun!

OMG, this is awesome!  It's kind of improbable as a real table but who cares this thing is a blast.  There is so much going on on this table it will take me several days just to figure it all out.  I've been anxiously following the WIP on this table, but I was still blown away by all the detail in this one.  Very fun table, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

hehe= i'm watching your technique Open :)  Pretty good quick extra ball!

 

I haven't played enough to understand how to move the flippers and when to hook and then reel in..... I had to install 10 tables so now my feet are sore.

Tommorow (Which is actually today by the look of the clock).

Great Stuff Steve!

Reminds me of Sega Bass Fishing on the Dreamcast!  Great game, very inventive and so much fun to play.

Sega Bass Fishing on the Dreamcast

 

 

That was the point... :)

 

Thx a lot everyone, comments are greatly appreciated! I already know about the free extra ball giveaway. it was meant to spend more time fishing than loosing a game since it is a family table. maybe in 2.0 I could make it tougher for those who are hardcore gamer :)

My setup is a single 24" LCD for the backglass which is rotated 90 degrees. Both the Translite and DMD share the same screen (just moved to upper and lower sections of the screen).

 

This will also work on an xPin or Vishay with PinDMD2 (if you have one). Steve does awesome work with DMD animations which always look authentic.

 

Is that a real DMD screen or an LCD screen?

to reel in the fish you must tap as fast as you can both flipper buttons

one then the other like the old running games for the NES

 but keep a lookout on the breakage meter

 if it gets too far in the red you may lose the fish!

it took me a while too to figure that part out

 but now that I know how to reel 'em in this pin's a blast to play!
thanks for giving me the chance to go fishing in midwinter! :dblthumb:

Errr,yeah. It was actually in reference to something else you obviously didn't pick up on.

 

Haven't you got any physics threads to troll your way through?
