Roxy Raccoon's Pinball Panic News

I am pleased to announce and release a new feature that has been in the oven for a long time, an in-game table creator! This means you can now play around with creating your own tables!


Don’t get too excited quite yet, this is in very early stages, there may be bugs present and it is missing a lot of features.

So why release it now then? I would like to garner feedback from the community and improve it over time as well as add new features. I want to know what people think and if they think this is something that is worth pursuing at all.

I am not going to advertise this widely nor put it as a feature on the store page until it is in a much better state, but I hope you enjoy what we have so far and please share your thoughts and opinions.

What do we have so far:

• Some Basic Mechanics: Bumpers, Drop & Stationary Targets, Holes, Rollovers, Gates/Switches, Slingshots
  
• Board Pieces (Turns, Ball Catches)
  
• Multiple Raceways
  
• 6 Blockers
  
• 6 Plungers
  
• 5 Fences/Rails
  
• Lighting & Fog Settings
  
• Post-Processing/Camera Settings
  
• Save/Load/Delete/Test Levels
  
• Rotate/Place/Flip/Scale Objects
  

What’s Next:

• Spinners (Having technical difficulties atm).
  
• Flippers (Having technical difficulties atm).
  
• More Plunger Options
  
• More Board Pieces – Misc. Shapes & Sizes
  
• More Blockers/Edges
  
• More Post-Processing/Camera Settings
  
• Music Selection
  
• Room Themes And/Or Decorations
  
• More Raceways
  
• More Blockers
  
• Post-Processing/Camera Settings
  
• Implement User Feedback/Fix Bugs
  
• General Polish
  
• Special Game Settings
  
• Improved Audio
  

Far Future:

• Steam Workshop
  
• Cannons
  
• Kickback
  
• Toys?
  
• Table Themes?
  
• Missions/Trials?
  
• Wide Table
  

Development of this will be ongoing with continual development of other features/patches. I will continue to add more DLC, quality of life improvements and other various updates and gradually improve this feature over time. If you aren't interested in the Table Creator, don't worry. It will not consume all of my time.


Lastly, I would like to add that this feature will be free for everyone and will remain free.

Great news pinballers!

After a major health scare that lasted a little over a week, I'm very excited to announce that I'm back and development will continue. While I'm still on the road to recovery, development itself has now resumed.

That being said I have 3 big features in various stages of development as well as the next DLC pack. Expect to hear more from each of those in the near future.

Thank you to everyone who reached to me via Steam, Social media and any other means.

Dear pinball fans,


It is with a heavy heart that I must say that development of the game is on temporary hiatus. I faced a major health scare earlier this week and have been in the hospital ever since. I have no estimate on when I may be getting better or when I might be released.

That being said, this game has become my greatest passion in life and I have multiple features and content in various stages in development. I by no means plan to end development of the game but things will be quiet from my end for the time being. I plan on getting back into things once I've been released.


Thanks for your understanding and stay tuned!

• Added various post game stats to the score screen:
  
• Individual ball scores, Top Speed, Average Speed, Total Distance Travelled & Game time (If you have ideas for other stats, feel free to let me know).
  
• Imperial & Metric measurements can be swapped from the gameplay settings menu
  

• Added a new multi-screen display option in the Video Settings Menu (This must be turned on before launching the table).
  
• This option allows the backboard and DMD to be displayed on a second monitor
  

• The artwork on selected buttons now changes, rather than simply changing colors. This allows for better contrast.
  
• Improved Sticker Quality on Targets and various props.
  
• Gates/Switches now have score pop-ups.
  

• Improved level select screen navigation/controls with the gamepad.
  
• Fixed a bug where focus cam could still be activated by holes even if toggled off in the options menu.
  
• Fixed wall art on Hectic Highway.
  
• Behind the Scenes Optimization on the following tables: Construction Chaos, Blissful Builder, Sand Sanctuary & Foolish Pharaohs.
  

Fixed an issue where playing in Story Mode would not let you start or quit a game.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
