Such a neat table. Played one at the old pinball museum in baltimore a while back.
Can't wait to see how this turns out

I played it in VP8 awhile ago, but at the last Allentown show I played the real one. I loved it, all the ramps and different levels of terrain, 5 flippers, 3balls load and release 3 times for a 3ball setting game. It's unsettling to your senses, but very cool.

 

Looking forward to this release.. :db: :otvclap: :dblthumb:

THis is one I've always passed over playing, but this looks like a lot of fun to play, It's gonna go great with all the other high quality tables on here. Look forward to watching this come together.

This is the game that I took inspiration from for making my Tron table. :D


I could have been smart, but I never learned anything by being smart!

Here's an update of the current status:

 

 

Graphics 80%
Sounds 60%
Coding 60%

 

Only the entry gate for FastLane is missing on the playfield, this will be implemented today. The table is fully playable now. (Multi-)ball routines and the last missing sounds will be implemented this week, also some missing animations (e.g. kicker and flipper animations). When everything goes well, test phase can be started within the next 2 weeks.

 

Table is hard to play: a lot of balls, a lot of flippers, and  a lot of playfields. You have to pay attention on all balls simultaneously.

BTW: Does anybody know the switch numbers for the flipper lanes?

Thanks arngrim!

 

I was unsure, if there's really only one switch for both flipper lanes, because the ROM diagnostics routine for the switches displays "flprlne lft". So I thought, switch 13 is only for left lane.

 

"Fast Line" gate is now implemented, going to bed now ...

Was this machine sponsored or licensed for Suzuki? The logos on the drop targets being the only commercial branding really throws me for a loop

There are a lot of other brandings on the sidewalls. But I don't know, if they are "real" ones, or fantasy...

Looking great Sindbad...  A very unusual table.   A one dimensional Banzai Run.    Can't wait the play it.
