Oh man this is update is SICK! Thanks so much for the technical dive... the more I see and read how these hardware and software platforms are utilized and troubleshoot "in process", the more fascinated I get as it (slowly) sinks in.

But more to the point, that ruleset and sound package is awesome. What did you use for the music? I detect shades of TNA, with some Pinbot cameos - all great stuff. That guitar-klaxon countdown in the wizard mode is incredible - very appropriately stress inducing I saw a Stellar Wars for sale locally some years ago and now I wish I didn't pass, ha.

I played your Meteor update at Louisville Expo this past weekend and it was *incredible*. Super stoked I might get to apply your talents to one of my games (Firepower, hint wink please) too, so please sign me up when you're ready! Thanks for sharing your progress and tech dive meanwhile.

Quoted from DickHamill:

For the wizard mode, I was trying to invoke the sounds from the self-destruct sequence in Alien.

Mission accomplished, I thought of that too

As a fellow "space pin" fan, I eagerly await your future endeavors!
