Is the plan still to raise and lower that lower PF to expose different amounts of the lower monitor during different parts of gameplay? I can't remember whether or not that feature was scrapped.
Also, that clip with the plastic in the saw has an interesting sound - maybe something that could be incorporated into the soundtrack somewhere?

First off Guys, I have a Safety Meeting Every Friday, in your honor, but I failed and smashed my Toe to Bloody Hell! No Power Tools!
Sharing my thought on your kickback, a gate that opens on feature for the middle would be cool, or a bounce back post for some drains?
Is the Lower playfield getting a third smaller ball playfield in the middle?

How about when the kickback activated a curved gate above could stay closed, or randomly or purposefully open momentarily and redirect the ball on varying paths downward toward the slings, left or right flippers, ect. Hell maybe in that moment the left flipper button could be used to choose where the ball goes...

Wow! Havent heard of that one! Great idea!
Are you thinking that the curved metal is flexed to different positions, or even Random, so the kickback location varies?
Could the Amigos code a random generator for Coil strength to go with that?

Yes, have a curve of rail swing out... maybe even have targets on the right and you have a moment to control that gate position with the flippers to hit a kickback skillshot...

Yeah totally!
It is actually working really well.
But at this point we are still using the external monitor to write code.
Maybe next week we throw in the subway from front door of the playfield mansion to the lower playfield.
Quoted from PinPeet:Lachen weer!! Thx
Ja toch

Hahahaha,you can easily be a pinball amigo Art!!
Mic was actually mentioning a gate yesterday,but this is how far we got 
In the center ring of the lower playfield there is gonna be a bunch of targets to smash with some inserts,a bit like CV ringmaster area!

Ofcourse we can do that!

Making sidenotes here... 
Quoted from Marten:Drop targets would be cool on the lower playfield! They could be made to look like tombstones!
We know,but the lower playfield weighs heavy already with the 2 flipper mechs and 2 pop mechs and these drop mechs ain’t light either...there is already a metric ton of stuff hanging under that little playfield...but we’ll debate it...it’s a fun idea!
