I enjoyed flipping Octoberfest for a couple hours tonight at American Pinball. Much thanks to Josh, Barry, and Nirmal for hosting these evening events. At one point I was in Josh's office playing a prototype while he sat at his desk working on the code. You can't get much more "behind the scenes" than that! First impressions: The game is fun and I love the ducks. It's only going to get better as more variety is added to the music and light shows. The German accents were cracking me up. My biggest criticism would be that the only way I was getting multiball was by selecting the Juggling mode. I'll cite Herman in the Munsters as an example of setting a low bar for casual players to earn an easy multiball. Overall, I liked what I saw and I'm looking forward to whatever comes next.
