I've been following the P3 for quite some time, digesting each new reveal and piece of information greedily while waiting for the game to release.
I started making my own games using the P3-ROC boardset and love the python framework that Gerry helped create, and the boards that Multimorphic produces.
Meanwhile, I'd been quietly saving money to put towards a P3...
I was able to make the purchase shortly before TPF this year and am in love with this machine. Serviceability is really quite nice. As someone that does a lot of work on modern and older games, I really appreciate the little touches. I adjusted a pop to be more sensitive the other day, and it really could not have been easier. Pulled the module out (four connectors and lift), then flip the whole thing upside down and adjust and test outside of the game. Much more convenient than pulling a whole playfield or sticking your head in and fooling around.
My family and I have played tons of Lexy (still haven't squashed six aliens in one game yet) and ROCs. The non-pinball folks seem to really like ROCs more than the traditional game. They'll play it for hours. Lexy is quite deep - most modes I can beat (except for assembling the ship), but putting that together in one really killer game is quite difficult. Seeing pinball people's reaction to a bug hitting a slingshot for the first time is priceless.
Once delivered, I started saving again, this time for a new module...
And just yesterday I received Cosmic Cart Racing!
My wife couldn't believe that the swap time was so short. I updated Lexy, the launcher and system utilities, and though the updates were pretty quick, that update process took way longer than swapping the modules.
I'm in the process of learning Unity and hope to contribute to the ecosystem as well. The SDK is very well laid out and the documentation is very nice.
All that to say, I am breathlessly awaiting the next games for the system. Thanks Multimorphic for super solid products and lots of fun!
