Quoted from blastbeat:

Feedback please. All preference I know, but do spooky owners like their pins as much as stern they own? I was gonna get Mando but love Halloween theme as well. Just not sure what to do and I need to decide by tomorrow lol

Hell ya!

And Stern will be making Mando for ages, so you can always circle back and get that one NIB later anyway.

Hmm should I do Ultraman so that I have both?

You are obligated to do both now

Quoted from underlord:

If the cabinets are built first how does anyone figure out the butter option?

They'll ask you before your build is up

(They did butter in batches in the past)

Music and sound are hugely important for me in pinball. If HWN in whole sounds as good as the clips I've heard, then the audio is going to S L A Y.

There's also an app called Twoku that you can use for Twitch on Roku. But it's not normally in the store, so you have to ~side load/allow list the app. Works pretty well for me.

Quoted from SLAMT1LT:

Not knocking the design team, but this is entry level game design:
- 3 identical shots on the left side, with 3 identical toys (eh?)
- targets too close to the flippers (Ninja reaction times needed to deal with those rebounds)
- boring left ramp
- 3 mini playfields (novelty expiry date on those is about 2 hours)
- lighting that will burn your retinas
Code will add more creative flair to the game over time, but a poor layout can kill all passion and enthusiasm you have for any theme.

Pretty strong take when you haven't even played it yet.

If you want another boring ass cookie cutter layout there's plenty of that out there. This one looks like a ton of fun to me. But I'll have to play it first to know

Quoted from manadams:

Improving the code on the upper playfields is not going keep the ball up there longer, that's on the player getting more familiar and skilled at doing. The design of this game is going to require patience at times and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

On ACNC I rock a loose tilt so I can work the hell out of the upper pf. Adds a lot of fun IMHO. I anticipate doing the same here.

Quoted from Doctor6:

This sort of response always confuses me. If none of us had played pinball before, it would hold water, but often times I am able to watch a video of pinball and say "that looks awesome/awful" without and be right. Some games on a stream are definitly more fun to watch than others, however.

Hey, if you want to say you're not feeling it, more power to you. But to call it an 'entry level design' or bad shooter based on a stream you watched from your couch 3 beers into your night is just being hyperbolic. Need to at least play it.

Quoted from jk2171:

I think it would be cool to add either the sound of Michael Myers breathing (from end of movie when they are showing different locations in the movie), or wind and rustling leaves, to fill some of the sound landscape without the repetitive themes or music. Doesn't have to be all the time, but would be unique and give it a creepy vibe IMO.

Looks so damn awesome.

I'm surprised there's that big of a difference in print quality between the decals and direct print. It almost looks like the decals are missing colors.

Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

You think so? I think they should, but it seems unlikely to me. I just assumed the animations would be awesome on this. Spooky killed the animations on Alice Cooper. A+. This is looking like a D- so far. It's like night and day.

ACNC did set a pretty high mark

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

One of the confusing aspects of the inlane ball feeds is you don’t see ball exiting the mechanism, instead you’ll see it exiting the bottom of sling plastic marked in green. If the slings lose most of the graphics you could see the ball at the moment it leaves the mechanism and marked in red. I hate the idea of losing artwork but if that is needed to make the game less confusing then I am for it. Spooky have you looked at that? Especially with solving of the staging issue, player needs to see the ball sooner than they can now.

I think I could 3d print hz offsets to shift things out of the way.

Hi all. Selling spot #215 if interested https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/122267

Who's Dr Frightener and why does he have no taste in pinball art? If HWN has any strength, it's in it's art package...
