Got to movie Binge last night at bobukcat ‘s house. Fun mode! Wish I had done better in the movie modes leading into it as I understand the scoring of that mode is determined by how well you do in the movie modes.

Might need to go back and stream the new code. We had some issues where the game is losing track of the balls. Very odd and inconsistent. We saw the game get confused in multiple, very different situations.

Really liking this game a lot.

My only dig at the game now that I have plenty of time on it are the jail escape modes. I like the idea of them, but just relies on too many shots that are “shoot and pray type shots”. Other than that, Pretty awesome game.

I’m talking about starting them. Need to complete the escape targets when half of them you need to just hope the pop bumpers hit them, then to start you need to hope the ball falls in the hole up there. Maybe if the hole up top and the scoop started the escape modes?

Quoted from Strummy:

I'm glad that we have the option to turn the laughing girl off. That was annoying to me.

Options are good. It might be my favorite sound in the game.

Quoted from mbwalker:

Thanks guys, I did manage to find his w/a google search. They are located on the 'Work in Progress" page.
Here's a link if anyone's interested: http://www.passionforpinball.com/wip.htm

Put Mylar down for now while you wait. Works wonders.

Quoted from mbwalker:

I may do that, as long as it's removable w/o damage. I am keeping a close eye on it, and have the coil adjusted low. Pristine so far but I want it to stay that way.
Anyone know how difficult it is to install on Houdini?

Wax the area first, and it will come right up when you want to remove it.

Quoted from MMP:

OK, I'm going to say that I am surprised that I am the only one with this sentiment about a pinball eating my balls after attaining wizard mode. Perhaps this is not the game for me.

You’ve beaten the game. Game over. I think it’s fine and a nice change up. It’s borderline impossible to get there, so i think it’s fitting.
