## Transcript

There has been speculation for a number of months that Pinball Adventures' debut pinball machine Punny Factory may make its first public appearance at the upcoming Texas Pinball Festival. According to a recent social media post by the company, the game will not be at the event. Specifically, they said:

"Just pressing along, last of the parts came in. Launch scheduled sometime after Tex show:) [sic]"

With so many new pinball machines already debuting at TPF and competing for attention, missing the show might now be the worst thing for Punny Factory. With all of the parts to complete the game now in house, I would think that it won't be long before we hear more from Pinball Adventures about the game.

Below are several pictures of the game from the Company's Instagram account:
