Thanks for the info! This is good to know.

Hey I noticed this today (and entered):

https://www.pizzapayback.com/prize/pinball-machine

Funny I saw the payback commercial a moment ago and was thinking this should be a prize, then see this post!

I am in! thanks

Nice to see this added. The first time I checked out the payback site, this wasn't there and thought that was quite the missed opportunity, a heck-of-a-lot better than a neon sign.

I hope there's more of these product/business tie-in's for pinball. This and PBR show that the hobby is healthy, and it helps bring it to a public that may not be thinking as much about pinball as we are.

I registered

I'm registered,would be foolish not to.Enjoyed watching the youtube videos of the guys playing.

So I can have a pizza themed game next to a beer themed game? Add a rock or sports theme and you have a man cave.

I've reported this thread to the mods so that I can keep my odds of winning higher.

MODS: I want to report fraud.

Please tell me more about these fraud allegations.

New video from the playoffs and finals of last night's launch party tournament!

Was the game set to tournament mode?

The first few minutes show that the Noid loop seems to shoot great. There were fast shots and medium shots right off the bat and none of them hosed the player.

Not to diminish anyone's effort to have sounds for all switches, but what will the final slingshot sounds be like? I like that they are zany, but they are also a little strong(?) for a sound that will be heard so many times in a game.

Oh, and those lanes. Man, they remind me of my Diner inlane/outlane setup. Best advice, keep the ball in front of the slings. :p

debating is SFX are even needed on those slings.

Side note

There are a few mechanics that will be changed.

The first for sure is the skillshot. I have changed it now to be progressive. It will start at 250k, then 500k, then 1mill.. resetting back to 250k if you get an extra ball after collecting the million.

Other rules to change will center around how mystery award works in conjunction with the 5 right targets.

And there was a bug in the extra ball bonus for having less than 1 million points on ball 3.

How hard is it to take the sound out and play a few games with it like that? <<< Don't read that like I'm being a dick, honest question. Maybe it's easier to make a test setting where you can turn them off and on in the menu and play games switching every time to see which one feels better. I like the sounds of slings firing, so even having no SFX would be ok for me there.

And yeah, that skill shot should be nerfed. 250k for the first one might still be a little OP. Maybe try 100k, 250k, 500k and leave the "Charlie Cheat" in there so you can try to short plunge and do it with a flipper.

It's all good. Its pretty trivial to add an option to turn the sling sound off and on via menu. So I'll go that route.

We'll have to play with the skill shot totals.. 50k, 150k, 250k could be an option as well.

I like the "Charlie Cheat" name.. if people absolutely hate it, the only way to combat that is to put the skillshot on a progressive timer .. the longer the ball is off the lane switch the lower the skillshot will be worth.

This is true..

I didn't watch the whole video yet, but there are certain modes that after you complete opens up a hurry up or two that are worth millions. They too will probably need to be toned down.

After playing the production model, I must say Domino's is a great shooting game. Loops and ramps are smooth and fast, I especially noticed improvements on the Noid loop and outer orbit, and the pizza oven scoop was much friendlier too.

Looking forward to some scoring tweaks and added callouts/light show work to really put it over the top! Kudos to Adam, Charlie, Fawzma and the whole Spooky crew for putting together a great game and thanks for letting Buffalo Pinball help launch it to the world with pizza, giveaways and the Noid! I've got some great photos on the way and will post them up here when I get them.

My opinion on the skill shot is to scale it down so it is not larger than the multiball jackpots. With Handle The Rush jackpots at 10k, and some of the others being more like 50k, I would have the skill shot at 10k and go up each time you make it.

BTW, the game does shoot great. The scoring needs tweaking a this early stage, but the bones are solid.

Well their pizza is garbage might as well make it into a pinball machine I guess.

I sure hope one of these is at PAGG this year.

BTW, "Deliver" is spelled wrong:

Nice catch.

And all ready fixed in the next code update.

If this was at the Domino's by my house it would be the only pizza I would ever buy because I would be there playing the pin. Right now Sam's Club and Dewey's gets all our pizza money, but that could change fast. Kirkwood, MO Domino's listen up.

Adam, Is it still looking promising for the game to make it to the Houston Arcade Expo?
www.arcadecenter.com

Looks like a really fun game. Sorry is this has been asked earlier but is there / will there be a list of Domino's franchises which have one available for play?

The sound effects are cool, but is there still going to be a change with the music? Thanks and game looks great!

Is the code update posted online? We could install at Pocketeer if it's ready to go.

Tomorrow, I can get you a version with those bug fixes prior to the rule change going in.

Domino's is updated to an official version 2. Emails have gone out to those that need to update.

Enjoy!!

Welp. They won't give me the franchisee's contact info, and I've left a message with my contact info and not heard from them. So I guess no domino's pin in my town.

In reading this article, it would appear that the Domino's pinball machine should have been the first to include drones on the playfield and not Dialed In!

Man I want this pin... seeing code updates and rules rewrites is just icing.

You have a few weeks left to order one...

you in?

Global conquest sub wizard mode was written last night. I'll be testing it today. Then moving onto Pizza Wars!

We should have gameplay video soon, so you don't miss out on this if you're on the fence still.

we need an opportunity to play the game with the new rules. Unfortunately/fortunately many of us need to lay hand on the game.

I wish Spooky would extend the deadline till after MGC in the spring. I am interested and know a few others that are as well, but cant pull the trigger without playing it.

2 Points to make..

1.. the cutoff date is out of Spookys hands. 150 units or end of December.

2.. not entirely buying the play before pay. How many games are being sold for big bucks and have never been played (or not even playable). Some will say, "but its rare".. I think this is the situation we are in; except it won't cost you your first born, arm or leg

The game was in Houston and currently in NY with the updated rules. We also have one here at the shop that can be played if you are local. Just reach out to KT and Charlie to set something up.

1. did not realize that was a Dominos set cut off. Makes sense. Had no idea it was time and number. How many are sold currently?/ how many are left before sell out? Last I heard it was just the time cutoff.

2. Not all of us are rich dudes that can afford to buy before playing. The situation I am in is that I wont buy anything without getting some time to play it first. If it was for route then I make exceptions. this would be for home as we dont have any locations that would want a pinball advertising for Dominos in their location

I will see if I can get over to Benton to check it out before the sell out. I really liked how this game shot the 1 chance I got to play it, but code was rough at that point and completely revamped since.

Let me put it to you this way, all the shit you gave me for RZ.. I didn't do in Domino's lol

I don't know if I can talk about numbers, so I won't comment.
