Roxy Raccoon's Pinball Panic News

The newest DLC is out and this time it is Pirate themed! The theme was chosen as it ties in well with the new villain from Roxy Raccoon's Bowling Bash. I also decided to implement Kickback on both tables as it was brought to my attention that none of my previous tables used this mechanic. After programming and adding the feature into the game, I retroactively added the mechanic to Silly Circus and included it in the new Bowling Bash table as well.
I have gone back to the 1 regular table and 1 wide table format and will do so for the next DLC as well, I hope to have that one out in November. I was already asked and sadly, no there will not be a October/Halloween DLC. I fear that it may be too similar to Ghoulish Games and I want to add more variety to the tables. I also need more time to develop the tables and I do not want to rush them out.

• Free for everyone and not just those who buy the Pirate Palooza DLC.
  
• Loaded with over 70 voice lines.
  
• Not useable in Story mode.
  
• The Witch Volume slider in the settings menu has been renamed to Announcer Volume

I am pleased to announce that there will be a free expansion coming to the game next week to celebrate the launch of Roxy Raccoon's Bowling Bash.
I have put together a small trailer showcasing some of the content which is attached to the bottom of the page.
There will be full patch notes released next week to explain everything in full detail.
Here are some key features of the update: New chapter in story mode (new cutscene), one new table, an alternate announcer, an unlockable bowling ball, 3 more cosmetic items & fur colors.

I will also be putting the game on sale, including all DLC. So now would be a good time to spread the word and to pick up any DLC you may be interested in! ːGrenadierː

• There is a new Thunderbird which has been added to the following tables: Radical Railway, Wacky West. It replaces one of the ravens on each table.
  
• Cleaned up the ending cutscene.
  
• Minor behind the scenes optimization.
  
• Performance improvements on Great Gamble & Graceful Games.
  

Side note:
You may see achievements and leaderboards have already gone up, this is for testing purposes and the update won't be live until next week!
