I’m looking forward to seeing one inside a game with the triggers being done via gameplay

The jackpot reels have nothing to do with jackpots in the game. I am also not a fan of this animation or sure of where it would fit. Poker machines have nothing to do with the theme of the machine, going to the drive in in the 50's and watching a monster movie

Much more thematically aligned

12 seconds is an Eternity for an animation to play, based on how often videos will get triggered it seems anything more than the first 3 seconds won’t be seen

IF you can show it working in a dark view first to appease everyone who is still skeptical about the triggering. Will gain you a lot of credibility on progress of it working in the actual machine

Videos look good. Can you do a single end to end game?
