I am currently working on Wicked: The Pinball. The current build is Build 55. [Screen Shot]

Here's a progress report on Wicked:
Currently, nothing is scripted except credits/start/end of game. The center ramp is also scripted with the Defy Gravity™ effect. I won't do more scripting it until I have the finalization of lights done and the playfield image finished.

I have the layout the way I want it. I just need to finalize any lights that I want to use on the table. 

As far as the pop bumpers, I am going to converse with some of the folks who make really nice looking ones and see if I can reproduce that. I realize the default bumpers are UGLY.

I am not sure I am going to keep the well on the left. I want to use it, but I don't know if I should have it pop out at the top and roll down the ramp. It's basically a catch for when you complete TIK-TOK and you get a randomized bonus. But, I want it to look cool when it's lit.

The center kicker is where one will need to hit to lock the ball (once it's lit). I am still working on what you need to do exactly to enable that. I suspect it will have something to do with the two targets on either side of it. Once it's lit, expect the ball to Defy Gravity™ and enter the ball-lock ramp.

I was going to place the playfield text directly on the playfield image, but I don't think it would be readable if I do it that way, so I am working with decals for now. Regarding the rest of the playfield -- I am going to try to add some texture/color to the orbits and lanes so it looks somewhat realistic. In the past, my playfields aren't exactly what I would consider "works of art" and I'd like to rectify that with this table. (Note that I did not create the playfields for Gopher It! or PinZee. I'm talking about the ones *I* personally made. Yuk.) Someone was going to assist me with creating the playfield, but I have not heard from that person in months and it's really hard to get motivated to work on the table with ugly art on it... which is why I am trying to do it myself at this point.

Once all of the above is done.. then I'll script it up and it'll be good to go. I'm shooting for a Summer release. After that, I might go back and finish Metroid or Celestial Splendor (or turn Celestial Splendor INTO Metroid. lol.)

Also, I am going to put the site back the way it used to be because this forum thingy is just a huge resource hog. However, I am going to code it so everything is served through index.php and read from flat files. So, basically, I can easily add a new page. I have the code working, I just need to get the template setup. 

The downloads do not require you to register.
