Quoted from PismoArcade:In light of the Alien fiasco (among others), I thought I'd remind those of this blast from the past.
(Wow...I forgot that Barry Oursler was hired for this dumpster fire, too.)
barry was never even contacted, i asked him in an interview on the pinball podcast. they lied to make themselves look legitimate.

Sounds about right.
I still have my Vonnie D T-shirt.

Barry must have been mistaken. They were pretty clear in their first post. This is all on Barry! lol
Quoted from VonnieD:First just so it is clear we do have Barry Oursler already on board helping with his knowledge of pinball and designing game modes.
lol75 backers pledged $104,050 to help bring this project to life.
Quoted from RyThom:WTB Vonnie D t-shirt.

Start a Kickstarter (what, too soon?)
Quoted from ronlisa:» YouTube video
Favorite quote was when he says," from what I've seen so far, the game is incredible". Haha what does a lying puppet know?

Quoted from Mbecker:Crazy story, just read thru it after a nod from the DR thread. Did Wes end up in prison then? Anyone know?
Yes, 5 years in federal prison without parole for his "incense" side business. He's not due for a parole hearing until late 2022

The whitewood should be incredible by the time he's released.
Isn't federal prison pretty cushy? He might have access to a nice woodworking shop and could be quietly building gremlin machines
I have always wondered what happened to this game and never in my wildest dreams did I think this would happen. I got into pinball really in 2012 and it was a weird time with Metallica coming out and JJP starting to get off the ground. Everybody complains about Heighway or JPOP but this company is never talked about. Now I know what happened...wow. 
Quoted from captainadam_21:Isn't federal prison pretty cushy? He might have access to a nice woodworking shop and could be quietly building gremlin machines
No, it is not pretty cushy.
Like the line from the movie Office Space; "We're not going to white collar resort prison, no no no, we're going to Federal pound me in the ass prison".
