TWIP TUESDAY: March 19th, 2019

Multimorphic announced a new game for the P3 Platform last week – Hoopin’ It Up! And best of all – it is FREE. Check out all the details here!

Scott Gullicks, one of the creators of Legends of Valhalla from Riot Pinball, joined two podcasts last week for interviews!

First, Scott joined our friend Jeff Teolis on Pinball Profile. Scott talks about many features of the code and toys in the game, and talks about his love for flow. Here is just one highlight from Scott:

In the Legends of Valhalla, we have a number of different things you can do during the game.  So it isn’t really a “I’m going attack it one way every time”, there’s going to be multiple ways to attack the game…we have basically eight main Viking traits or characteristics that we’re trying to have the players as they play collect throughout the game to try to get to these wizard modes that are called Valhalla and [?]…some of those eight characteristics are things like combos, where you need to collect a certain number of combos in order to get to the wizard modes.  Or we have the 16 legends.  I’ve gone in and done a bunch of research on Viking legends and those associate directly to 16 modes in the game.  So you get a lot of variety in the type of modes but you’re also going to be exposed to a lot of the cool history and features and mythology of the Vikings.

Scott then joined our friend Tommy Skinner on This Flippin Podcast. They dive into a lot more details on the toys and mechs in the game during the interview. Here is one 20,000 foot view of the game from the podcast from Scott:

Legends of Valhalla – the general idea, you’re basically a Viking warrior.  And you’re going through the game trying to play against 16 different Viking legends…pulling in a Viking theme was something that I thought was going to be exciting, and when I started getting deeper into the mythology and history of it there is just an amazing array of characters and storylines.  Very exciting and creative background stories we could pull in for pinball.

Riot Pinball also shared some artwork of a Valkyrie that will be featured in the game on this Pinside post – check it out:

As a reminder, Riot Pinball is not sure yet if this will be a “one-off” machine or if it will have a larger production run. Looking forward to seeing this progress!!

Josh Kugler shared some detailed information about the tent modes on Oktoberfest last week on this Pinside post, sharing the following:

Good reference material for Texas Pinball Festival this weekend!

Mark Incitti, the creator of the Nightmare Before Christmas home-brew pinball machine, shared in depth rules of the machine last week on Pinside in five parts:

Wonder if this will ever go into production? Also, it is it time for me to start working on my home-brew Harry Potter machine(s)? Hmmm…
