Hi everyone,
I am thinking of making an original homebrew game (not a retheme). What things should I do to ensure that the playfield could be mass-produced as easily as possible if the game were to go into production at some distant time in the future?
My initial questions are:
1. What standard parts are available and are likely to remain available in quantity? Is it just the parts in the "homebrew" section of the Pinball Life website or are there other sources?
2. What design software and file formats should I be using to design the playfield to ensure that a manufacturer could produce it in quantity?
