From TWIP this morning:
“What We’re Hearing about the pinball machine:
that Iron Maiden will be the next title released
that Keith Elwin is the designer
that Zombie Yeti is the artist
that it should ship with v1.0 code (!)
that Lyman Sheets is on code…and that Keith Elwin is on code?
Explanation: we first heard that Lyman was on code, but we also saw this post by Elwin on Tilt Forums which indicates Elwin himself is doing the rules. Perhaps it is something where they’re working together on rules?
that it may have four flippers
that it may be based on the layout from Archer, a home-brew machine designed previously by Keith Elwin
Are all these rumors correct? No, probably not. Hearing now that it may not be Lyman on code at all – that Elwin did the rules and someone else is implementing and programming those rules. We should find out soon. Speaking of that…
**WHEN WILL WE SEE IRON MAIDEN??**
Ok, these are RUMORS so take them with a grain of salt, but here is what we’re hearing through the grapevine:
The reveal will happen TOMORROW (Tuesday) at around 10:00 AM (not sure which time zone, guessing Central)
The reveal will be coming from Rolling Stone
The goal is for Dead Flip to stream the machine TOMORROW (Tuesday) afternoon, subject to last second licensor approval
If these are true, we could be watching this machine in action, like, tomorrow!! Stay tuned…”
