Highlights
- Scott Denise set himself a one-year deadline to have a playable homebrew game ready for Pinball Expo
- Michael Ocean and others built Mission Pinball Framework which was adopted by TNA and other companies in-house
- Final Resistance uses a static playfield approach with persistent LCD inserts to appeal to traditional pinball players
- Scott Denise's previous P3 game designs include TNA (Total Nuclear Annihilation) and Rick and Morty
- Michael Ocean served as lead developer on Weird Al and programmed sound effects in musical keys
Notable quotes
“if it wasn't for that homebrew community honestly i wouldn't have wouldn't have made that one year mark so if at all i might have given up who knows”
“i wanted to make a game that was based in the future in a cyberpunk dystopian future where an alien spaceship is coming to invade a city”
“can i convince them to come over take a look at this game play some games on it and actually fall in love with the idea that of this platform”
“you have to make sound effects in key. So sound effects, you've got to kind of know where they're going to play, because if they're not in the right key with the background music playing, it could sound really terrible”
“the lcd the multimorphic uses in the backbox of these things looks has such deep color depth and such like really such good contrast that you cannot tell when it's sitting in a line of these games”
