    Quoted from Kkoss24:

    I’m new to this but have posted the same question before .Now that I’m neck deep in this there’s room in these cabinets to drop the playfield a few inches that would allow an upper area to use at will without having to put in a upper playfield that takes away usable playfield space .Does this make sense ?

    There are a few games with playfields sections that move up and down, such as zaccaria time machine and doctor who.

    Quoted from pinballlife:

    Multimorphic has turned pinball innovation on its head. If the pinball public REALLY wanted true progression in pinball they would be the sales leader.
    This is not the case, so I can only deduce that the pinball market doesn't actually want THAT much to change.

    I think it's just the big display screen that is a large portion of the playfield that many players just don't gravitate to.

    If you stuff a bunch of multimorohic's advancements into a game with a more traditional style playfield, I think it might turn some heads.

    Quoted from pookycade:

    Pirates (a rocking play field kinda cool).

    Not the first time a rocking playfield has been introduced

    IJ's path of adventure comes to mind.

    I really want to see more mechanical stuff happening. A big display doesn't really impress me much.
