Quoted from Cserold:

100% agree. I’m in on this one. Love it

If it's a great FUN_ game I'm in. This theme has unlimited fun potential.

I played Houdini maybe 10x at some shows. Seriously impressive machine. So this second sophomore effort could be a big deal.

I don't think I will be a day 1 pre-order though. Going to wait to play it or hear some 3rd party reviews. Unless I see it, and its so packed with innovation/toys I can't help myself.

Really impressed. Looks like tons of modes, flowing shots, a subway? Tuning in to Dead Flip to see this.

Great day. Got to see MBr, and Oktoberfest.

Quoted from ASOA:

Only problem I see is with some of the animations. Not on par with Stern or JJP. Still seems unrefined and a bit sloppy in areas. I know this is not final code and the company is still new. Needs some works in that department.

Yah the LCD animations need a lot of work.

Looks like a really fun game with tons to do. Wizard modes sound very challenging to achieve.

Looking forward to seeing how the code develops and to opinions of guys at the show who got to play it.

Quoted from PinMonk:

jjPotC is no slouch, either. The animation I point to always that really speaks to their creativity integrating the video into a theme is when multiball starts and they have the camera below the water and pinballs falling into the water like cannonballs. Impressive. There's no other word for it.

But also jjPOTC was delayed a full year from announce to ship. This alone has really hurt sales for JJP. A scaled back pirates shipping a year sooner was likely a better idea in retrospect. Don't you think? Just from the view of making JJP profitable as possible.

I agree that Oktoberfest animations look pretty bad and distracting. Obviously they are showing stuff that's only 30% done (their words). So to this, why not wait and show the game in December when its ready to ship? Instead of feeling required to show anything_ based on an Expo schedule. I feel like it's a real trap feeling pressure to show stuff this unfinished. They just shouldn't show it until they are really done. If they need more opinions, get some alpha testers in, etc

I’m hoping the new art package has more monkeys.
