from my old notebook, dated 6-24-1993. Even though I had a full time job doing research I still had this crazed urge to design a pinball machine
Shot Ideas
(shots to include in my game design)
speed
action
flow
Yargov Shot
Needs quick reflexes; high speed ball
Electra In-Lanes
smoother flow
Loop
(like
BK2K
, I'm sure)
but easy and obvious
Make shots easier, but faster and make reflexes more important
floating flippers - eliminate middle drain (?)
looks real cool to bystanders, but not impossible
vertical stuff
magnet - smart ball
(this was where a servo would move the ball under the playfield, sort-of like Dracula except it could do loops and such)
more steel, less plastic
steel playfield? no artwork? no light inserts? blue, red & silver only? makes it look different than a standard game
construction site - conveyor belt, with magnet on a crane
no bumpers
spinners
few kickout holes - 1 less mechanism (?)
make the playfield arch a readout panel
copy cool Star Wars look
