  • Great job man. It looks like you've solved most of the bugs. I really enjoy playing the Simpsons version, probably because it has so many bells and whistles. The ball control is very good now as well.

    Thanks Burvey- yes I tweaked the controls and added just a tiny bit of friction to the ball so you can grab it with the flippers and aim it better. Seems to have helped.

    I just threw the Simpson's game together to show how decals and more sounds and action make it a better game. I will include a mission to accomplish like light up all the family members for a million bonus and I have more animated gifs to add to the action and a better layout.

    I also have a flat screen pinball editor almost done for mobile and it is much quicker to design layouts with that. I will try to get it uploaded by this evening so people can check it out.

  • Let people know when you have done a major update like new levels to your games in the forum. I have my Pinball Sandbox in the top games and it bounces around a little but I use my own website and social networks to promote it and I use the forum to announce any major updates like the new Simpson's theme pinball layout I just added.

    Don't be afraid to ask your friends to play and leave a rating. If a game doesn't get high ratings at first it usually ends up buried never to be noticed again. Once it has some good ratings more people will play and rate it.

    See how that works

  • Looking good! Will it be an escape game or other puzzle?

    I have done a few escape games but my graphics were not so good lol!

  • Updated Pinball Sandbox with Simpson's Theme Fan Game:

    https://www.scirra.com/arcade/tutorial-games/pinball-sandbox-demo-13984

    I also tweaked the flipper and ball for better finite control and added some grit to the ball so you can aim it very accurately. You can really control the ball about as well as in real pinball now with a little practice.

    The game scoring and missions are still in development but you can see where I am headed.

    I am working on the editor and also a mobile version and flat screen editor version for people that want to design their own games.

    I have a website set up now so I can start promoting the game and sandbox editor when it is finished:

    it reminds me the old pinball game from windows..

    nice work!

    do you think to put some missions to do?

    Thanks- I looked at the old windows pinball builder for some ideas.

    I am trying to come up with themes like golf and bowling and maybe a zombie game. I will be creating more layouts and components and then you will be able to use the components in your own layouts and add in decals and give it your own artistic talent.

    Coming up with ideas for mission layouts is the hard part!

  • Definitely an improvement with textures and shadows!

  • So what is your company website so we can see what games you have published?

    I have new unpublished games in development but I want to know who I am dealing with.

    Here is Pinball Sandbox a Pinball game and layout Editor in development:
