There are no bad jokes. Only jokes repeated over and over and over again. I don't know about high scores because this one is hard. Borg dog, just tell me in 10 words or less, how did it feel having your game on display and people playing it? Um, I got I got a note from uh from Erica that your your your Star Wars was amazing, she said. And uh if you guys don't know that um nervous as [ __ ] If you guys don't know, Borg Dog had his homebrew at um the Northwest U Expo had happened and uh yeah, when you get actual people touching it and flipping it, it's a little different, right? It's kind of crazy, but congratulations. I'm glad you had a Did it break? Yes or no? That's what you got to ask all homebrew people. Did it break? No. Question mark. I don't know why there's a question mark. No. Question mark. Okay, I'll buy it. I'll take it. No. Did it. Did anyone tilt out and make you freak out? Yeah. Yeah. No. Congratulations, man. That was great. Erica took a sneaky picture. Where's my Where's my thing? She took a sneaky picture of you and sent it to me. Let me see if I can Let me Let me see if I have it. Where's the sneaky picture Erica took of you? She said, "It's amazing." Oh, no. That wasn't the one was sneaky. One was sneaky of you. All right. And then the other one was of this this handsome dude. This handsome dude with an awesome game. Congratulations, Borg, for having it out. You were at the Fast Pinball booth, I think. Or was it a Fast Pinball or was just like a Yeah, it was like It was like fast pinball. Yeah. Isn't that cool, guys? That's That's our boy. That's our boy Borg and his game. That's what I'm talking about. Hell yeah. To actually make a physical freaking game and have it on location. Fast pinball. Yeah. Did you see Aaron? Tell Aaron.

Congrats to Glenn Glen board. Um, so I'm gonna play this. This is a work in progress. And you know what? I'm an idiot because I forgot to even look up. Um, let me see something here. This is Let me see. Uh, where is it? Where is it? You know what? You know what, guys? I don't know who's creating this right now, and I forgot to ask the name, but I asked Marty. Marty has streamed this. This is a work in progress right now. World Poker Recreation. I apologize if Marty shows up. I'll ask and then they'll um and then they'll tell me who's working on this. But currently, it's uh it's still in production. It's still being created. It's a recreation of WPT. It's probably the best simulation of it right now. It stutters a little on my game, but I'm going to play it anyway. As soon as I get into a multiball, it starts to stutter a little bit, so I might have to restart. But, um, it's still, you know, it's still in beta, still in testing, so there's still some stuff to do. There's a lot of features. Um, is a VPX table you can play? Really? Or did you grab it and then recreate it? Because even still, that's still that's still a tough thing to do. It doesn't matter if it's like your own creation or a creation. If you take a virtual and turn it into uh Robbie Kingpin is working on I believe. Thank you, Dreads. Uh we will check that with with Marty, but um Marty was kind. Yes, my VPN first eight years ago. Nice. Awesome. Cool. Yeah. You know what? I want to check it out. I want to download it and try it. That would be cool. Yeah. Thank you for letting me know because that means I can throw it and throw it into this puppy. I don't have the physical one, but the uh the virtual will have to do. No, I'm not lamb. I'm not doing sunglasses otherwise I won't be able to see what I'm flipping. Hey, there's Marty. Marty, so is this Robbie Kingpin? cuz I forgot that. I don't remember asking you a goddamn thing. What the what? I need to update my antivirus. Incoming raid to the mystery pinball theater. Pinball is in the his mostly pirate. Welcome to the theater where life is like pinball pirate. Sometimes you tilt, sometimes you're special. Or sometimes you're like Manu and you get an extra ball. Get an extra ball. Yes, we know Pinm. Thank you pirate for the raid. Um, welcome in just to catch you up. Just to catch you up. Mostly pirate. Welcome in. Have a seat. Good to see you. I hope your raid was I hope your raid was good. I hope your uh your stream was good. Just to catch you up, mostly pirate since you just joined us. We recently discussed I just started. So, we recently discussed Borg Dog and Borg Dog's uh homebrew debut at the Northwest Pinball Festival. Congratulations. We recently discussed uh Erica and that she's sneaky. And uh we were discussing this game is still in testing, but Marty was cool enough to send it over to me today. I asked I said, "Please, I want to play some WPT. Can I stream it?" He said, "Yeah, I'll give you the latest version." So, this is the latest version. I don't know when it's going to be released, but this is a this is a kind of special game. I don't have flips on the do, so it's going to be a little quiet when I hit the flippers, but that's okay. I can I can wait for that. Um, then we'll know your tell. Uh, he whistles louder when he's lying. If anybody gets that reference right now, you get a thousand points. That's a tough one. That's a tough one. Um, he whistles louder when he's lying. Okay. Um, let me see. From now on, Ghost Flipper, I'm going to beat you at everything. What did Ghost Flipper say? Damn you, Game Central Puncher, you beat me to it. Glad to see this is being redone so I don't have to keep playing the one from the name that shouldn't. Okay, cool. Yeah. Yes. Bruce Valanche. No, it's from a TV show, Lamb. So, that's No one's going to get I'll tell you at the end of the end of the stream. I'll tell you at the end of the stream. What What TV show? You're going to be like, "Oh my god, you have to be a thousand years old to know that." Um, I'm in free play, so I didn't even need to do that. notice I don't have the absolutely atrocious actual WPT back glass. The absolutely atrocious I you know Courtney does not look like that. She does not look that terrible. And with Vince and and and Mike in the background. I am proud to admit this man is as old as dirt. Yeah, she's right. I I built her when I was a small lad in my lab and then I went and you know I turned to the dark side and I became Darth Vader. Um, my mother the car. No, no, Grubby. No, it's a tough one. It's a It's a very obscure one. I mean, not an obscure show. It's a really popular show. So, um, yeah, I actually met Mike Ston. Mike Ston, uh, the the the, uh, the pinball, I mean, not the pinball, the poker, you know, announcer and excellent top tier player himself. Um, oh, Slappy Guns got it. Slabby Guns, how the hell did you know that? Wow. No, Slappy Guns got it. It's from an episode of MASH. He whistles louder when he's lying. Oh, wow. Slappy Guns a thousand points. Write the slapping. Only a lad. You really can't blame him. Only a lad. Society made him. He's our responsibility. Oh. Oh. Whoa. Whoa. Wow. Pimbot. All right. Frank Burns can't play poker. Exactly. Frank Burns. Oh, man. So, just so you know, I mean, I I I kind of forgot a lot of this game, but I do know the object of the game is to defeat all the players at all the different locations. Um, and that the skill shot is very important in this game. No dots. I I was bored. I was going to change it back to dots, but then I said, "Nah, I don't want dots today. I just want I want all the dots filled into squares today." Um, it was Winchester. Was it was Winchester who was lying when he was whistling louder? Okay. It's been forever. I think I saw that show when I was like 12 or whatever. I don't even remember how old I was. Um, so the skill shot is very important. As you can see, it's got three options: advance, hold them, mystery, and skill flip. And if you want to get through the game, you're going to always advance your hold. You got your flop, your turn, your river. It does hold up. Yeah, you got your flop, your turn, your river. Your flop and turn river on your ramps. Ramps are tough to catch. In fact, this is not even a ramp. This is a turnaround. It's like a U-turn like in Jaws. Um, this is a big old steep ramp. The shots in this game are so far back, but this is a drop target lovers freaking dream. Um, this game is extremely difficult to get through. It's very hard to get through. Uh, because by the time you hit like the Bahamas, you have to hit so many ramps and stuff that it's really tough. There is a strategy on points for this game where you want to do your spin a card shot. This shot is incredibly difficult to hit. But this is where your modes are, and your modes are switched by hitting the flippers. You got six modes down here. And you can start a mode if you can hit that shot. Your light lock is over here in this dangerous area right here. Um, and there is a shot way back here, which I absolutely love. That leads to this upper playfield. There's a lock here for Ace in the Hole, and there's a hole there, and there's a light mystery there. So, this this is pretty much a downtown. This whole game is downtown. Like like you want if you want to make a shot, you got to get on a bus. You got to you got to catch a bus and go go go into town to do that. But they'll give you an advanced hold right in the beginning. Bahamas for when parrot heads dress up. That's right. This is my Tommy Bahama right here. Remy knows speed limit 55. So I'm going to try and lock in the ace in the hole. Got a mystery. Gmy, I'mma try and lock. See if I can lock in here. Nope. Missed it. Next thing I'm going to try is not to drain all day. Didn't figure you for a Buffett fan. No, I didn't get the Buffett reference, but I am wearing B Tommy Bahama shirt. There you go. The shots on this are really hard, but I think the shots on the actual table are that hard, too. So, lock is lit. Yikes. I had to give it a little nudge right there. Uh, parrot heads are at word. Jimmy Buffy's fan. Oh, I didn't know that. There you go. All right, here's the turn. Still trying to lock and still haven't been successful. So, if you can shoot, this game is for you. If you can't shoot like me, this game may not be for you. But that ramp is tough. And then after a while, they're going to make you shoot that ramp to advance your hand. All right, I beat Las Vegas. I can move directly to Atlantic City, but then I have to beat two. Okay, I got a lock and I got a chip trick and I think a spin a card. Yes. So, we're playing steal the blinds. And as I recall, this is I keep dropping it down below, but I really want to All right, that I think that I think that mode is over. Nope, still going. That's Woo! Boy, this is tough. So, as you can see, as you Damn it. As you hit drop targets, you make hands. It's a very challenging game, but I I I still find it fun. Oh boy. All I want to do is advance my hand really right now and I don't seem to be able to do it. Doing lots of chick chip tricks. Oh boy. Oh, this game. I can lock another ball and start a multiball, but I really want to I want to spin a card. See if I can back Oh, the backhand. The backhand, baby. I backhanded that like. So, I think I'm in Am I in Did I do a spin a card, too? I did. No limit. No limit multiball. Now, this is where it gets really slow on my machine, though. So, let's see if it still does. I turned a lot of things off. There's a lot of features in this game. There's reflections and all kinds of stuff. I turned most of them off because my machine can't handle it, but Crap. That was terrible. Woo! That's a spin. Okay, I think it lost a ball. Where's the ball? I'm in multiball, but there's no ball. Uhoh. Well, this is why this is still in beta, I guess. Yeah, it lost the ball cuz I shouldn't be in one ball right now. Oh, ace in the hole. I don't know. Maybe it is. Maybe you're right. Well, let me see if I can make that shot. If I can feed that ramp. No. Okay, now it's going to be like, yeah, I lost the ball. So, somewhere in the game there's like a a hole or something. That That sucks. That's a pretty good score going on. We'll know when the missing ball finishes falling out of bounds and brings VPX down. Well, you know what happens, Lynn? I mean, for this I I've actually had this before today. Oh, it found it. Oh, so it didn't lose it. It was stuck somewhere. I mean, but that's still an issue, right? Okay. It was just stuck. Queen of spades. That's a That's kind of a drag, though, because you really you really don't want it to be stuck. So, I have one ace in the hole. Real games have stuff. I know, but this one has stuck balls a lot. So, if you have stuck balls a lot, then you have a piece of geometry in there that's that's holding the ball. I remember a story that um uh Wayson from um Stern used to tell and that he would go around to different um designers games with a bunch of pinballs and as they design the game they maybe leave whatever and he'd go over and he'd just put pinballs just gently set them down on the playfield to show the designers, hey, a ball can get trapped here. I think that's something that they do at Stern just to mess with each other. Um 16 is not too bad. A good score right now. Hey, Robbie will know we'll have a video to refer to. Yeah, there you go. Yeah. And I want I want I want this to be so amazing. I mean, it really is already amazing. I love this game. I don't know why I I've played this game, the physical version and the virtual version. I just I don't know why it's such a brutal game. I'm only beating Vegas. All right, where am I at? um at the flop. So if I do my advance hold this time you have to time it. Not not hard to do. I advance hold two diamonds and a heart and I can start the multiball. I don't usually want to but I will just for SMGs. There it is. Have to do it the hard way. There's a side. Whoa. Sometimes you got to flail to get those balls out of there. There's a replay. Woo. A There's my multiball. Stay in. Stay in. River. No. river. Oh, that's Hey, I still got it going. What did I start? Why do I have three balls right now? Not sure what I started. Did anybody see what I started? have any idea what I started? Baby powder may help suck balls. I've sent clips to table Arthurs in the past when something's wrong. Yeah, I am flush. How'd you know I was flush? She goes flush. Okay, here we go. Oh, that was bad. Try again. Try again. Look at that cheat. Oh, that was mean game. [ __ ] Oh, well, that was almost something. All right, I'm still in Los Angeles. I still I need my flop. Oh, I need my flop. Oh, I hate shooting that other ramp. You're busting out all the esoteric Pokemon. I'm trying. Oh. Man, it sucks to get that far up the ramp and then not up the ramp. I feel like this has stern uh flipper fade. Oh, damn it. Full house on the way out. Awesome. Only one city. One city. Slappy, what are your initials? I'm putting you in here. Slappy was first in the stream. Slappy needs to be distracted. What are your initials? Slappy. Sm. All right, Slappy. We got to beat your score over the rest of the stream. Thank you, Slappy. Boom. 33. That's a pretty decent score. My first a couple of times. You got it, bro. All right. So, the way you kind of blow this game up, though, is you have to stack those modes with those multiballs. Um, I think a really good mode, I can't remember, but I think it's Is it change gears? It might be change gears where you work the upper playfield and the lower play field. You can get big scores, especially if you can get a multiball going. Um, the game feels a little floaty to me and I'm usually complaining about these VPX reproductions being too fast. This feels a little floaty, although it really depends on, you know, how you set it up. I mean, I haven't changed anything from the defaults right now. Um, and and where I'm where I live, every game is steep. It's like a 6.5 freaking slope or better. So, this may be stock stock floatiness, so to speak. All right. So, I just got to get used to it. I'm just used to it being a lot faster. All right. Let's see how far we So, we're in the Bahamas. Great. So, let's see how far we can get. It's tough. I would play an ace jack off suit. I would at least uh I would at least see a flop with an ace jack off suit. I would want to see a flop now. It depends on my position also, but ace jack off suit is is is pretty decent start. Ace jack suited much better. That makes see if we can see a flop. Now I'm hitting that shot. I can't hit spin a card. Where am I? Play the button. No. Aha. Found it. Found one of them. Look at that. So, see how it's sitting there? That shouldn't happen. See that? So, we might be able to make some adjustments in VPX to fix that. I love that intro sound. What's up, Smemedley? I love that intro sound. It's like the first thing he says is you're wasting your time. And I'm like, really? Am I? I'm sorry. A queen makes a straight. I've never heard that before. Come on, you guys. This is This is quality humor here. Come on. Thank you, Grim. This this this game is based on that whole world of terribleness. You know that, right? When you get a pair of queens and you call them Sig Freed and Roy, every hand has a nickname and they are all based on being awful to people. I didn't make it up. I'm surprised nobody coming on your as a as I didn't make it up though. Like all I'm doing is just I'm just Don't kill the messenger, right? Let's advance. Advance. Fortunately, they didn't put any of that stuff in this game. You know, you'll get you get um Mike Ston won't say 98 offuit. 98 off suit. Mike Saxon won't say like terrible things. All right, let's see if we can get a flop. Let's see if we can get a flop. I want a flop. 10, Jack, five. Michael and Tito, right? When you get a jack, Jack, and a five, you get Michael and Tito. Isaiah, I hardly knew her. That's the third time that joke, but let's keep going. I love it. Let's go. Shoot the hole. Didn't mean to do that. Didn't mean to start my ace in a hole right there, but that's okay. Isaiah, this is a real man's game. This pinball, this pinball game here, World Poker Tour, as a man's game, and a woman who's really good at pinball. Basically, it's any human being's game that's really good at pinball. Damn it. That's gone. You're at the airport. Nice. All right. Back to about to fly from Tokyo back to Osaka. Well, aren't you the jet setter? Did you find Blue Swing yet? Did you go to see Blue Swing yet? Don't come back here without a freaking Blue Swing freaking t-shirt. Even if you gotta make one, lie to me and say, "Yo, Manu, Blue Swing was amazing. I saw them live. It's amazing." It would. Yeah, you're right, Isaiah. All right, let's advance. [Music] Yay! Okay, I'll lie to you. I got to play. I got to defeat another opponent. 89 off suit. We need to lock again. Open those damn doors. So those forks are exactly the same forks that Jack Danger uses in Fufuas for the um for that robot guy or whatever the main antagonist fufu fighters. It's also the same. It's also the same mechanism used in Avatar. Not the Jersey Jack, but the Stern Avatar. Bumpers, change the blinds, man. They tell you like so quick. They they tell you the rules so quick about each Gone. Gone. They use those forks um a lot in barrels of fun games. True. All two of them. They do have the forks in all two of those barrels of fun games. All right, here we go. Let's advance. [Music] I got a pair of fours. Where am I going? Let's get our ace in the hole right there. Oh, it's earlier on the flipper. There it is. What the fork? You were really into poker in the mid. I was really into p I was really into poker. I was watching all I was watching Phil Helmouth. I was watching um Daniel Negrano or whatever. I can't remember most of the game, but I used to watch this. This here is my Motel Capri poker hat visor. What was the Motel Capri, you ask? The Motel Capri was a place where we played pinball. Pinball. Jesus Christ. Poker every Monday. Um, this actually says, I don't know if you can see it. I'll show it to you when I'm finished. It says Motel Capri Poker Showdown. It's styled after I don't know if you guys remember a TV show. I think it was on Bravo or whatever. Um, I think it was called World Poker Showdown.

I'm probably the dumbest person in the room when it comes to um what it takes to do it nowadays, but I I built this I built this machine 15 years ago. 15 years ago when my son was my first son was born. Um because I needed a project um I needed something to do cuz you know being a new dad I I'm got lots of free time.

Oh, don't do this. You guys can tell that I absolutely love this game, right? Originally, a jackpot was a pile of money in poker that accumulated until someone produced a pair of jacks or something better. Oh, get out. Really, Isaiah? That's why it's called a jackpot? Look at the big brain on Isaiah. O Sam is 22. Yeah. 222 on Pens. Nobody said it was good. Dirty Pool. I just said I like it, but I didn't say I didn't defend it in any rankings or anything. This game is weird to people. People are like, "F that game." But then certain people I know who are collectors are all about, you know, they like this game. It's a weird game. It's a weird game. How many more hits? I don't know how many more hits. I'm not worried about the hurry up though. Weird. How? It's a Cuz it's got It looks like it's got nothing. It looks like start Oh, start poker. Damn it. Okay. Looks like it's got nothing, right? It looks like it's blank and bare. Look, it looks like it's a P3, and I own a P3. I understand the sentiment. Uh, except for Portal, but so that's why this, in fact, this is, in fact, this is a game that you could pretty much do on a stock P3. Oh, damn. Get me the freaking Woohoo! Oh, dirty pool. Dirty pull. Yo, yo, yo, question. Okay. Okay, you're here. I got King Kong questions. I got King Kong questions. I got King Kong questions. I got King Kong cuz I know you got a Kong. Okay. All right. So, after I've after I've climbed a little bit, what is it that um Damn it. So, so, so when you're climbing, right, you get like three climb lights and then there's an arrow pointing at a set of them like this. What What do you do when you're climbing? Are there What do you do? Like why is the climbing animation so awful? What's up, Swizzlefish? Eight shots of climb. Turn on the Yes. How Let me ask you something. Word up. How amazing is Keith Elwin? Word up. Like his rule set on that game. It's not just chef's kiss. I want to actually tongue kiss the chef. Kind of regret that I just said that. Okay, eight climb now. See, now I'm going to focus on freaking climb shots now, which is kind of dumb. I shouldn't The thing the nice thing The nice thing about his games is you can be doing something at all the time. You could be doing something all the time. So, okay. I lit island lock is Yes. Yo, isn't that cool? Island lock gets you a multiball and a ball save on a mode, which is sick. I don't know what clip dreads goes. Clip it. I don't know what to focus on now. Dirty. So, check it out. Dirty pimp. Okay, so another one question. The ball Yeah, the you think the ball saver is too long. Not for me. So many choices. These fanboy streamers, I love it. So So the other question is, which skill shot do you prefer? The spider or like the upper diverter ramp thingy? Go. Here's the river. The river. Do you like the anti-skll shot? That's the Congo. That's the Congo. That's like one of the Yeah. One of the Bro, you don't know how many times I hit the the anti-skll shot um um at the at the media day. All I was doing was hitting the anti-skll shots. People thought I was People thought I was whack, but it turns out I was freaking cool, I guess. Oh, it's a free hit to the biplane. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Andy skill shot outlane all the way. Y'all watch the NWPA show making of Kong video yet? I didn't. No, that's cool. Uh, no, the super secret upper one for sure. Okay, super secret cuz it gets a free hit on the biplane. Okay, that one's hard though. I mean, it's free if you make the shot. Yeah, Kong's Kong is straight up doing some business to one of those buildings. Do you have to use the Do you have to use the the river diverter to get that shot or can you get I I always use the river diverter to get that shot if I have it. Oh, wait. Where's my ball? I was looking at the wrong flipper. Um, and by business, I mean pleasuring itself. Okay. You haven't done it, but I did it once. I like There you go. Each pit multiball has a different rule, too. So, we have one. We have a premium at the shop and like each creature has different objects. Yeah. So, we have a premium at the shop, right? And I I barely get to play it cuz I was all in Guardian's butt today. Groot Groot decided to stop working. [ __ ] Oh, look how far I was. Ah, Dirty Pool. What are your initials? You're going in here. Or should I go DPP? Give me some initials, bro. Yeah, DPP. Yeah, I figured as much. D P. I like that. I like that. You and don't panic flip. DPF DP Don't panic flip comes first in the alphabet. Sorry. Is Slappy here? Slappy, are you still here? Did you Were you Slappy? Were you uh um distracted? Was this a good enough distraction? I hope it was cuz man, I I I to I put a pretty I put a pretty good score up, I think, or 48. I got to get 75 to get a GC. Oh my god. Uh, is this an updated version of WPT? What's up, Drop Cat? Drop catch god. I love it. Um, hang on a second. Drop catch, hold that thought. Um, Dirty Pool, I'll hit you up with my phone number. You can text me. Um, the question I had was I forgot the last question I had for Kong, but I guess I will be hing and I guess I'll be watching your um here. I'm gonna I'm gonna What's up, Owl? I'm going to shout out Dirty Pool so you guys can go check it out because if you want to go watch I'm switched. I switched. I'm on AFM now. Attack from Mars. No, no, no. It's all good. We could watch the VODs, right? We could watch the VODs. It's all good. How are you doing, Owl? Anonymous is here, too. Anonymous has a has does does a does a does a Twitch does a Twitch thing, too. Let's do an Anonymous thing. man, this is good. So, so back to drop catch. Back to drop catch's question. This is um a work in progress. It's coming along nicely. This is a this is the the the last the latest reproduction of World Poker Tour. I'm having a fabulous time playing it. I think Robbie, who's working on it, is Amaze Balls. Please finish it up. Whatever you got to do, Robbie, I had a ball stuck. Maybe you could take a look at that. But, you know, sometimes balls get stuck in games and I could be wrong. So, there you go. But, um, no, brilliant. Wonderful. Wonderful. I mean, I love this game. I don't know why this is alone. Have you ever played World? Of course you played World Poker. That's a dumb question. But what do you think on a scale of 1 to 10? What do you think about I'm going to put Owl on the spot. 10 being the greatest game ever and one being Thunderbirds. I'm on Eastern time. It's almost midnight. I got to go to bed. Slappy. Thank you, bro. Against Keith. What do you mean against Keith? No. Um, World Poker Tour. The theme doesn't grab me, but I love the shots and the rules. A solid 7.5. I agree too. I agree too. That That's kind of where I put it, too. I I like a 7.5, but I like the shots. They're so stupid. Is there a way in VPN to have it like have random malfunctions? You know, dirty. I we should talk about this on the thing, but it's funny how everyone wants that to happen. It's funny how I mean I've been doing this for 15 years here. Let me do I've been doing this not not the stream for 15 years. Stream has been about six years, but I've been in this game by the way. Check that out. Motel Capri Poker Showdown. I've uh Feels like it could have been a Black Knight game. Interesting. I've been messing around with this stuff and everybody comes up with the, "Hey, is there a way to make the game randomly malfunction or randomly dirty or can you make the rubbers get dirty? Can you make the play field dirty? You can make that. And my question is why do you want to you? The answer is yes, you can. Um, so hold on, hear me out. For tournaments, you can have it so the game is broken the same way. Have it lean a little, have unique quirks. There there you you technically the answer is yes. Technically the answer is yes. I've seen I've seen games where the design it's up to the developer. It's up to the the coder. I've seen games where the coder wrote kind of a variable uh vuck for a coil for um for a scoop that shot back to the flippers, right? They they they put a level of variability into it. Um, but I'll tell you this, the physics are actually so good now that sometimes you don't have to do that and the game itself will um, for example, I have an accelerometer in mind, right? So, whenever I flip, whenever I flip, I don't have to be nudging the game. anytime I hit a button, there's a variable, a small amount of my accelerometer will say, "Oh, the game shook a little bit." And that actually affects the path of the ball. Right? If you're playing on desktop, you're on desktop. And it's fine to play on desktop. Um um slightly go slightly going. I've seen so many I've seen so many problems with games. I I like I don't want them, but I understand the desire to like have the game be intelligent enough to write that. Um you you Yes, technically yes. Um when you're playing in a cabinet with a proper cabinet with a proper accelerometer and proper feedback, there's variability in the play no matter what because of um analog to digital conversions talking to the game and telling the game slightly move the ball this way because he did something. I mean, I was knocking Um, I was slap I I can slap the ball off of the sidewall just like a regular pinball machine. There are things you can practice. I've gotten better at live catching and drop catching because of the physics. Um, the push to get better physics in VPEN, they're not I I get off my I I don't want to be on like a a soap box, but the the the the super smart people who are writing physics and stuff for pinball are mostly pinball players. So, they're not coming up with this out of thin air. They're looking at their actual game that's in their actual house. They're looking at the actual game in their actual house and they're going, "Okay, how do I make the virtual play like that and they'll do stuff that will help that?" You can live catch now in Ven. The ball bounces, the ball flies, the ball will hop, the ball you you can you can play this in VR and see the whole table. Um, so you know, there's that, right? I can do a little ski jump right now if I gave the ball that gave the game a nice little nudge. You see the little hop the ball did? used to be insanely difficult. Okay, then that. Okay, then. Okay, that's a problem right there. Admittedly, that is a that's not supposed to do that. That's why this game is still in beta. But there we go. Doing a post pass used to be really hard in in the with the old physics. Now they're great. All right. All right. Um I have a Doctor Who near me that I know super well. I can hit every shot and then I go to another location. I had to hit [ __ ] But that's that's welcome to pinball right there. That's just pinball. Um side note, the flipper button literally fell out the second Doctor Who, which I don't want emulated. Um my firepower does. Yeah. Yeah. So So that's that right. Let me see if I can do an orbit. Um The biggest I say uh as a final word, the biggest um issue with some virtual pinball recreations has little to do with the recreation and more to do with the the flipper lag, the response of the flippers and the game. Um, I've had professional like big time like Andre Masinov would come over and play, you know, he was playing dieh hard once and he's he still noticed it's it's I've made the flipper lag incredibly short on this game. I think it's like maybe 60 milliseconds or something even crazier that pro players can feel that. They can feel that. It it's difficult to compare with the the speed of light hitting a flipper and having it fire on a coil and converting that to digital. So that's the only thing I want to be able to say. Um yeah, if there was more than 10 milliseconds lag, it's it's a wrap, right? Um uh there no insert for that to be caught on. It might be amusing. Oh, there's no interest in that because it might might be amusing to take advantage of that to simulate a raised sunken insert over the foil flipper that catches the ball on the war table. Um, oh, and to finish off the the conversation because I do have to stop streaming. Um, if you play in VR, you get pretty much minimal lag. And makes sense, right? It's inherent in VR to not give any lag, otherwise you're going to get sick. So, the responsiveness in VR matches the responsiveness of the game because that's your display now, right? Your display is in your in your in your head and when you hit a flipper, it fires mostly with if you have a good machine and stuff like that. So, that's how you get the least amount of lag in my opinion. In my opinion, Um, that's it. Yep. Okay, guys. Thank you so much for hanging out. Um, just keep on the lookout at VPU for when this World Poker Tour table hits and give it a try. It's it's it's a tough game, but it's I think it's fun. It's a solid 7.5. All right, guys. Have a good one. I'll see you later. I'll talk to you later, Dirty. and everybody else. Nice. I'm still here. Oh, you got to hit the button.
