we'll go back and forth there whatever we're just hanging out grab a beer and stop talking to me all right here we go hold on to your books all right let me know if you heard that Tanya was my hero all right let's get the zombie yeti in there yeah exactly everything's shorts you guys you got it don't worry um oh okay let's see here if it helps I'm gonna move this mic away from where people are playing and then I'm gonna talk into it and bother everybody hey everyone yeah 12 seconds you're on the clock man no no no welcome aboard okay [Music] I'm gonna kick us off ladies and gentlemen you ready this game is called Foo Fighters see inaugural if you want to talk welcome aboard what the hell is happening is this the new Dennis Nordman game will not help you Earthling and spiritual guide on this tour are you able to hear the game is too loud okay it's a song sibilance sibilance check One mic One mic one number nine all right so right here you can see that uh Mr danger can select whatever song from this list of eight songs they're all Foo Fighters songs so um some you may ask what does this do well what it does is it lets you uh select which song you're playing uh during the main part of the game um once you get into a mode then each mode has a separate song associated with it pick a destination all right what city you're gonna pick New York Chicago ah there we go Seattle so you can also just pass right now you don't have any van mods so if you wanted to you could like juice up your van before you play a mode all right the Foos are back in town and they're putting out a serious call to all Seattle listeners get out and join the rock resistance time to let that freak flag fly you can see the uh those little combo Tron lights they just went out so as he uh he keeps hitting shots the combotron keeps getting brighter and brighter and uh you can actually see on the display it'll actually uh map out the uh the path you're making with the combos [Music] there's also some uh some sort of hidden band member combos so you'll get like little like you know Taylor combos that sort of thing so the first thing uh got a lot of combos in this game it's called a ton of combos but there's a bunch of other stuff too first thing I'm gonna do is I'm just going to spell van by I gotta hit three uh white arrows and then that'll light uh van right there at the uh at the van insert on the left ramp the first everlord multiball which is uh all my life [Music] so internet are you uh are you able to hear us in the music okay is the game uh looking all right give me a little uh heads up I appreciate it I haven't had a chance to test any of this dude no way do you see those lights don't stick around background there there we go all right so I'm gonna go to New Orleans [Music] so uh trying to stack a multiball into this you think oh I even forgot about that I made it hard to put up on the difficulty ball oh yeah I think on the hard mode you actually gotta hit those targets oh nice look at that like flutter that was called the overdrive stage [Music] all right hit the left ramp it's gonna attempt to hit the left ramp I really want to hit the left Rim all right you want to let your overdrive Oh wrong Alchemy [Music] we're getting loved by this uh right out lane here crazy used to stream us I'm gonna give him the mic you got a little camera here oh yeah all right uh so there's like what how many skill shots in this thing like seven yeah I pronounce this officially awesome should we go for the uh the combo skill shot yeah World Jam high five on trademarks now let's see how many I can get oh no come on [Music] oh sometimes that little kicker will actually hit the ramp for you all right let's get our overload more primed a little bit whoa check out those light trails [Music] or just I can't get out of the combos I'm just gonna I got a band member combo there believe that that was uh the Taylor combo because I started it with the yeah the Taylor shot now my combos are Juiced up that's all I'm gonna see what I think I'm seeing dude activated the what are those targets called the ray gun targets yeah yeah I had the uh I had the um yeah next shot you hit will be multiplied you can see on the screen it says like you know two eggs go go where to RX uh Roswell I think New York is probably my favorite mode it's a spinner based mode [Music] all right so in this mode you can hit the spinner or you can keep hitting the spinner to build your shot value that looks like right out lane yeah so just so you know uh we're all getting hit by this ride out lane the right outline ball save is achieved by beating the crap out of that little guy right there or uh there you go all about targets so we got one two three four [Music] [Applause] I apologize [Music] yeah this guy gets it um thank you [Music] oh am I oh good good that makes you feel a little better it must be this new code uh I was doing so well earlier man those lights one thing one thing you'll never hear is I was doing well earlier somebody yeah all right time to get in there was a version of code we're at or if you want to keep that a secret ah sure yeah uh this is 0.8 uh currently um and every day Rey Tanya and Mike are just cramming this thing full of awesome stuff and it's amazing all right so uh are you cramming yeah nice all those expression light shows yeah yeah things like Danger on the ground dude come on pick a destination oh the dangerous yeah hey I collected a fubot part see you got the Torso that's for uh getting the combo Tron going so you hit enough combos basically you completed those three unfortunately I think your football part might go away now can we put can we put something in that right out lane please I'm gonna go for it next bomb player two we need to haul that's where the spinner is put yeah all right Jack Jack almost uh was starting to get into it there before he drained about the uh who Bots the various features give you uh fubot cards they'll actually activate a shot multiplier each band member corresponds to a different part of the fubot I think uh Dave thrall the head yep yep they broke the head the uh keep track of your boss or Taylor's yep Taylor's the heart and uh that'll actually give that shot uh 2x scoring while you have the um reflect them all then you'll get them throughout multiple yeah the animation's supposed to have that like 70s 80s 90s uh Saturday morning cartoon vibes freak out is that time for the animation yes it is [Music] there's Awesome Shaker motor effects trust me so the UFO is building up your action button but it's also an award you can collect by shooting a shot and then hitting that Captain's ball I think it lights on the in Lane first for a little bit but it's banking um what you might call from Deadpool uh boom buttons [Music] um we it is helping you spot shots and modes and such Tanya let that ride out lane save so I'm guessing a down the middle drain is in his future nice oh so you're filling up your rock meter there that bright little horseshoe it's pronounced rockometers oh not Rocco reader well actually depends up here for the West Coast or you know yeah if you fill up your rock ometer you'll get a playful multiplier which three will stack with these guys too so if you're you know in multi-multi my skill shot here I can time it try to get the top one that would be ideal but I was way off you can also get a skill shot by plunging into the drops and of course I can go for my favorite oh not bad oh yeah yeah here we go still going it's still coming oh all right let's uh what was like oh wait it's still alive yeah get it baby there's a really good chances right we're playing it play it as it lies internet I don't give a crap if a pinball doesn't drain oh hey [Music] um so there's several skill shots in this game uh that you'll discover but the super skill shot is a uh it's a combination between the rammy shot and then shooting the Taylor shot back and forth over and over and over again six shots in total [Music] art oh just hit the game I'm really good at all the others though [Music] basically if you ever hit the behind the drops there's an extra paddle Target there I call it the danger bar that's but that's a reference to something else right well yeah but it's also Jack danger yeah I appreciate it and if you uh basically if you don't hit all the drops down like you hit one drop and then hit the bar behind it it'll go it'll raise the drops back up which is kind of like a penalty kind of but you get a bonus X progress so it's kind of like still get good stuff but uh ideally what you want to do is hit all three targets down nice 12 times epic if you hit all three targets uh drop targets bang on that paddle Target the drops will actually stay down and you got like 10 seconds to just hammer on it try to level up your uh that was the kicker shooting up the ramp for me ladies and gentlemen not the right company make me look bad right now [Music] all right I wanna I wanna mode and a multiball The Big Apples L.A if rock and roll means as much to you as it means to me you gotta help the Foos battle this Overlord call in fighting brain sucking bucks I tried to tell you years ago but you wouldn't listen now hear this don't do it don't do it no you should have shot okay little little tickle oh come on two hits to it oh yeah hit that radio Sonic Radio Mystery will probably give you an animal yeah dude you're kind of Point puking everywhere oh it's you can keep it down a little I said I wanted to blow it up I need my Playfield multiplayer is what I need oh yeah oh I screwed up oh I didn't raise my flipper I'm an idiot no we re-locked the ball during multiball no my uh sorry I used all my boom button knees [Music] oh I think you got some good stuff Blues don't play that [Music] uh I think something I'm gonna have to ask Jeremy about the the pigeons with the satellites he thinks it's like drying them oh right that's secret secret business don't talk about the pigeons that's spinner loud enough for you internet it's backhand the rammy shot and it went all the way through okay [Music] now you're mine yeah internet sorry we're like so hell-bent on getting through modes we'll uh we'll show you something Area 51 sexiness that was gonna be my plan to try to come back on ball three but I'm in the doghouse here no George Georgia is more important things to do [Applause] [Music] oh no no one likes a tilters I think he locked the ball so it gave you like a ball saver Maybe oh no you started the multiball I think and then you ended it yeah I'm not sure why it fit there you'll pay for that in oh you were in the multiball and you re-locked the ball but so you thought you were out of a multiball that you had a ball locked it was in The holster so looks like I gotta relock the ball because someone uh emptied it but it will remember where I left off [Music] yeah internet I think the wildest thing about what's Happening Here is they we have the whole freaking team here like we're missing a couple of illustrators and animators but for the most part we got everybody here all right so I was just panicking I didn't want to stack them out I just wanted to start my multiball just to make sure I start it but I can hit this paddle Target there we go so my when I do start a mode it'll be uh it'll be Juiced up with some van mods I can also try to get up to areas 51. try to work on that a little bit I will put an answer to your internal building I didn't realize it was literally ouch not my undercarriage yeah uh isn't the Jack the designer we have to sign it all out [Music] feels alone [Music] all right I think I'm in area 51. there's some good animations [Music] oh no hey I had the balls so the idea of Area 51 is uh if you if you're following the animations when you are making progress up there is you're dressing up as a reformatted to break into Area 51 to start looking up and digging through files to find information on the overlord and uh if you really play that multiball like deep you see some really funny stuff we did something weird where we buried of really cool animation he knew the better you get at playing storytelling baby oh we made Area 51 harder the second time [Music] I got super spinner all right let's continue continue Seattle um oh yeah all the modes they'll carry your progress but it's better if you beat them in one go because then you'll get a fubot part that'll carry over for the whole game so I could start a different mode if I wanted to but I want to just try to beat Seattle if you beat three modes you can go to Austin one of the wizard modes let's see I think I also want to get bots because I can get an extra Ball by the extra ball bot uh no we turned them off oh internet we we did something strange also in the fact that we buried a lot of really amazing animation like near the end of the game too so again the more you play the more you're going to see a lot of work we put into all this [Music] oh man I still haven't caught up to Jack or Tanya I gotta [Music] okay [Music] all right now we're getting some points there we go look at that as soon as you can start ripping the shots the points just start [Music] whoa [Music] those inline targets are a shout out to one of my favorite designers Dan Langlois from a game called heavy metal meltdown split I gotta hit the overlord actually let's see if I can oh I got greedy trying to double it but now my timer's out oh I got it I got it or no I didn't I missed it no it didn't timed out that was the oh I missed it by one second oh no I did get it it's uh it's solid it's solid we're good [Music] all right so now now you can notice it's harder to get the van the second time they gotta hit a little different huh whoa that's not cool you're gonna till that's all you've got Rick yeah [Music] Let's uh let's get this over with so other people can play thank goodness [Music] thank you oh I'm so okay internet here's the thing Okay the reason you the reason we give you a free one at the beginning is because we need to teach you how to use this post it's true okay for the record I also am terrible he's also terrible at pinball but you you need to learn how to use this post if if I were as good at pinball as these guys the art with the words laughs [Music] yeah whatever you guys did in the code uh that you updated I'm glad what song is playing with grand champion that's good high score Ray I got you baby sound waves who's button me you're my hero so internet just so you know um the uh I'm I think I'm under the impression that these games will be playable at uh Texas pinball Festival uh they'll be at mgc and um I is it is the Southwest thing in public um if you're going if yeah if you're going to South by Southwest um it's like the 10th through the 12th uh come find Stern Pinball we're gonna have 20 of these freaking things to play I said 10. we have 10 of these things to play all 10 of them times two [Music] I mean is that all right four more who wants to go Nick wayana yeah Phil Mike Tom let's go yes I'll be at South by Southwest internet [Music] get a real knocker for it Jack knock knockers schmockers all right I'm in a hexa system oh yeah internet if you have any questions for um Tanya the programmer or zombie Yeti the artiste I got them right here on the mic um first question gets answered go Santa Claus Conquers the mark that's not a question well the expression lights kit be available for the premium yes you can buy them for the premium that has nothing to do with Tanya or uh zabietti yeah can I bribe Tanya for a custom Kalo all of Batman moving on huh what sorry I I don't read this quickly so yeah the expression lights come on the uh the Ellie and they're you can you can get them for the premium the pro uh Pro won't come with the uh upgrade but the premium premium does I I did hurt myself it wasn't on this game it just so happened to line up with this game it wasn't as a result of the game but I uh tore my rotator cuff and then I got a frozen shoulder look it up on the internet uh and don't let it happen to you Tanya any truth to the action figure what action figures that'd be kind of a cool idea that's a good idea super fancy it's not so bad yeah something serial is there something about a cereal I don't know I have made a request for a series we won't talk about it how fun was it to code this perfect game this game has been I don't know really fun to program I mean actually everything about this game has been a lot of fun the whole team has been incredible the working with this this this license tour uh has been awesome they've given us lots and lots of uh just Fleetway freedom to be as creative as we can and you know and we we let we let the zombie Yeti loose and uh and he he made something some incredible stuff and then from that we it sort of blossomed into this whole thing he's like hey what what if we had this pretend like there was this just this TV show that you know the Foo Fighters TV show animated TV show and so it's like okay let's look we gotta now we're gonna make up a TV show yeah yeah uh so Tanya and Jackson were really nice and they didn't say no a lot which I like so I'll work with them again maybe but so here let me tell you something so I saw a bunch of stuff people ask questions uh what our favorite pizza toppings uh are uh cheese I don't know I don't know yeah there we go I don't know yeah it's a turtle's question there I like the barbecue uh chicken so that's not really it no it's true it's true so so here I'll just tell you a few things and I'll let it go somebody asked if there were uh Easter eggs uh somebody always asked them do you guys like Easter eggs anyway yes there are there are Easter eggs if you guys can look really closely under the uh upper right flippers uh you will see someone hiding underneath the flipper um that's one Easter egg I'll give you the rest you gotta find for now I would love to do evil dead that's fantastic um no uh so here's a here's a little bit of trivia and then I'm gonna go eat some pizza um uh the uh Overlord and his uh magnificent machine um were actually inspired uh their palette was inspired to me by um my love for the old superpowers uh Lex Luthor and his uh magnificent uh ship I had as a child so there you go uh I figured he's bad Lex Luthor was bad um hey somebody says they knew it good I'm proud of you Nick is the Nick Wayner here at the lead tester on uh Foo Fighters pinball he's also an excellent player he's uh I don't know if you have a nickname yet we'll have to if you have any suggestions for Nick Wayne's nickname something like the robot Taylor Snyder all around the pool guy that's kind of long though [Music] Wayne weiner serious call to all Seattle listeners get out and join the rock resistance does it become a pinball tester um that definitely helps yeah how did the van mods work all right so um yeah so you'll see on the uh by the pop bumpers there's there's three pairs of Lights yeah by the there's no power right I shouldn't be talking so drop targets so we there's three different mods you can get for your van uh and they while you're not in the band mode you can upgrade the van mods um the bottom one is the engine the middle one is speakers and the top one is the bomb and you'll see if you look at the model of the the band you can see that it's got speakers are sort of like it's it's stuff on the side like Shields and then the the bomb is is the vacuum tube bomb on the top so um so the engine will give you uh that that'll give you more time so basically you hit the drop targets down whatever mod is flashing uh that's the one you're gonna be upgrading and then you just bash that paddle Target to level it up each time you hit the target it levels it up more and more and so when you start a mode is let's say you have level four of the engine your Mode's gonna start with like 70 seconds instead of 50 seconds or you know 80 seconds so if if you're always running out of time get that engine souped up the uh the speaker it's just score boosting so every shot is worth more points and then the uh the bomb um actually bought two shots so when you start the mode you need less shots to finish it and you can also do that during multiballs so if you're in a multiball but you're not in the band mode you can work on your drops and then when you come out of the multiball your van mode will be all souped up we did this all with color so um as you can see here Phil's got no mods lit but try to get the bra targets down yeah get a skill drop Target skill shot really light Plunge internet just so you know um you're also noticing that there's no hiccups on the stream tonight everything's nice and smooth because I took that laptop and freaking shoved it out the door F that thing we're working on something new and it's way prettier [Music] it's weird [Music] so the drop targets are a little bit uh I mean they're you basically bash on them a lot and you try to film The Colors so you can see Tom's got his uh bomb in yellow so the stuff on the right is what's locked in so next time he starts a van mode he's gonna get uh boosted progress so it's going to be less shots to start it'll it'll all come to it all makes sense as you kind of get it no way man see those lights but I mean the important things I know we we did we did thing we definitely want this game to be fun for everybody so at all levels we have um like the overlord is right there in the center and that's good you can it's pretty reasonable to to start it like almost anybody can start that mode that multiball um and then we've got the and then it just builds up from there we've got I sort of Started from the front end and Raymond uh started from but you know from his his perspective which is making it fun for for top level players such as himself so I think we're gonna have we have a game that's going to be fun just to play without even thinking about it and it's also fun to play um you know in tournaments [Music] right on [Music] um no yeah this I personally I think this game is going to be a ton of fun in tournaments especially because of all the different strategies you can do with this game um the rest reward of um um shooting The Targets in the end Lanes to um you know get your shot multipliers um it's it's gonna be really interesting um and just you know what modes to stack with multiple and all that because there isn't you know one mode that's like oh yeah I'm always gonna stack this with monkey balls I think and you know it's you gotta decide you know what what are you feeling at that time um so uh yeah personally I like to do things not Austin Seattle um because you know it sweeps around the Playfield so you know probably the ball is gonna hit it during multiple when I'm not paying attention to the shots [Music] oh that's awesome yeah good point internet uh next time the score display comes up look at the player names that aren't active um they are carved into the dashboard of the van I'm trying not to uh punch the camera right here [Music] at the front Nick's probably played this game you must have anybody oh yeah they played with a lot come at me humans that voice right there was uh Brendon Small as the voice of the overlord you might recognize him from such uh joints as uh the Metalocalypse and home movies this the spinner on this thing being Optical and right up the middle spins for eternity uh Max Playfield is three so if you shoot the right orbit and it cuts around through the uh rocket meter three times you'll get the 2x keep repeating that you'll eventually get the three it's on YouTube on the uh yes still in the game pick a destination yeah Los Angeles New York Chicago yo by the way internet thank you to everyone who is subscribing gifting Subs bits all the stuff the support means the world to me uh again you are the community that helped me get to this point uh so thank you for supporting this endeavor and uh supporting this amazing team making this freaking game thank you gotta be aliens dude player two um this animation was done in a program called Phil's hand on a piece of paper uh Tom kizabet here uh animated a whole bunch of stuff that you're probably gonna have to work your ass off to get to but when you do holy moly you you have no idea uh yeah yeah Area 51 and then like the thing um yes there's a chopper coming uh my my Engineers here if he wants to talk all about oh no he's busy no we're good I'm talking I'm joking um Let me let me tell you let me tell you about the topper really quick I have no information for you outside of you're going to actually poop all of your pants together all of your pantses are gonna poop it's a cool topper but then it does other things this camera are you sorry yeah Okay Internet listen there's more than there's there's more to roll out that apparently Jeremy's deciding to leave divided [Music] um anyway uh here we go what in the hell are those lights I'm seriously starting to freak out here goes your hero [Music] what's the hexagram display on the bottom right oh I'm glad you asked ladies and gentlemen the bottom right display is what we call the combo drone you'll see all the circle inserts in front of all the shots light up different colors and they light up when they know that a combo can happen from a shot that you just made now a combo that you make will then be recorded in the shape that you made it in that little display on the right um hey guys yeah let me get saved in the little mini displays there uh the value and the shape of which you made it and with enough of those combos and hieroglyphs uh you start opening up other things just freaking way yeah oh okay internet it's like it's like you know some of the Foo Fighters stuff [Music] he plays this every day a lot of hours we always have the glass off he keeps this on yeah he plays for reals he is you can make a pentagram on the Playfield you sure can if you really want a pentagram internet then work work your way up oh you missed your double suit bro you can still get a super uh you didn't hit the target [Music] what man you've got the right arm the left leg and the chest yeah you're almost and you got your right leg it's flashing which means that's extra mostly too it really is here's what I want I want to see you get to Austin I know that's what I'm trying to do I got uh one more City all right [Music] oh also a lot of uh if you'll notice the uh displays or the scores are not impact if you build the whole robot you get to start ubot multiball a sixth ball multiball there's a lot of points [Music] like it's a poo butt [Music] oh knowledge [Music] wow look at that combo Tron he's making a big sag yeah oh got the Taylor combo there nice like combatron's lit up like a Christmas tree Magnus Scopes danger post Castle Playfield uh yeah one more that sounds about right I think so yep pepper Playfield the two Scopes well and the coil for the overlord because he actually bounces around [Applause] bam that's coming back right I thought it wasn't just because you said I have both outline what do you need for oh yeah you lost some football Parts but you got the Torso back yeah Amazon one-day shipping [Music] oh we're gonna get Jody in the house [Music] what is lit oh to finish final blow final blow hit a hit a shots Target get 4X final final blow it all right this will be big enough yeah this will be probably like 50 mil let's see time bonus oh eight Miller there was a version of code where those were uh obscene internet my wife just sent us celebratory cupcakes they say they say happy Foo Fighters day in in chocolate the city progress is not well he's not in a city right now but it's on the upper right corner he's got three cities complete though so Austin will be selectable uh once he gets in the van again [Music] this is exciting yeah the van gets harder and harder to to load up as you beat mode so he's he's beating three mode so he's got to hit those particular shots okay your fan is ready [Music] oh fire your jackpots are pretty high because I think you beat one of the modes on your first try nice Nick just going after Jack's 1.8 billion here but he needed to use the overdrive so he had to lower the right flipper at the perfect time that was so cool [Music] extra balls you can get from completing modes completing the bot Awards um I don't know there might be other ways I I don't remember at the moment [Music] three bought targets three waves targets um [Music] they'll be something really cool it's a friendly friendly robot oh that's not so friendly anymore uh yeah combatron shots slightly correlate a little bit Yeah I helped you did the coach uh me and Tanya and Mike the dead post automatically raids from the left out lane yes but your flipper is not automatically raised um there is a setting if you want to automatically raise the left flipper it'll automatically just flip it for you so Bob frenzy is um you hit the bot to light the spinner and the more Bots you hit the more the spinner is worth oh yeah you're working on overload floor two man you're checking off cities [Laughter] you have Bob frenzy that Stacks well with New York what is our promise yeah since you want to hit the spinner dude oh 2x oh my God that bonus would have been nothing come on buddy hit him hard [Music] [ __ ] yes that was an aggressive swear word I think the adult mode is on State of Mind mature setting yeah I've heard a bad word oh yeah you're oh no [Music] I think you're uh your radio jackpot pretty close because one of your Bot cards [Music] the inspiration for this mode was sort of uh for the second Overlord here is I wanted something Katamari demasi where the overlord is just covered with all these instruments and you're beating the crap out of them to get it off of them instruments of your downfall remember this is your second Overlord multiple three ball multiball turn it up louder you hit the radio yeah yeah basically the uh the tractor beam sucks up all the points from one shot oh no triple drain no those will have no problem shredding you to pieces yo Nick that was gross that was sweet [Laughter] Facebook hey does uh does anyone have any questions about anything so far are you just uh sitting back enjoying what you're seeing hopefully oh my God that that's my favorite thing to do on this game by the way the center spinner to side ramp over and over again yeah that side ramp is such a friendly side ramp is that like a two degree angle the ball just like sucks up it's so good I got one question which was uh who did the vo so we got um this is Bob Bob Baffy right here um also one of the other DJs is Jerry Thompson uh the the voice of the Roadie is done by a pinballer dude from uh Seattle his name's uh Brian Headley uh the voice of the who bought which I'm not sure you probably heard the end of the trailer was Andrew matesi uh Mont hessi yeah that's right and then Brendon Small is the voice of the overlord um we've done a lot of work and there's still a lot more to do on the voiceover uh we had a pretty big pretty significant script team like we started with John zombie Eddie's ideas and then myself uh Cheryl Wagner um Eric Lederman uh Mike kizabat Tom kizabat Jack danger um we have lots of people contributing to the writing all right let's get another iPhone let's get another four player gaming uh I know Jody Watson here uh okay we got to get some other people that haven't played yet I'm here to I'm here to uh help uh get some questions Jody Eddie do you have a do you have an Insider account okay until next time yo sound waves a little bee poop so Jack someone's asking what did you do on the game so I watched everybody work it was awesome God damn it oh that hurts tomorrow I'm just here cheering everybody on and made all these shots took a lot of shots yep had some ideas [Music] all right man game on at a four player game [Music] oh you got four players in oh good job all right part of the who bought is going to be played by Dirty dankford or whoever the robot is oh oh guys [Music] I was playing with that helmet on a friend of mine protected me that they think the helmet looks great on the screen it does looks awesome yo everyone thank you for the support Wilson thank you for the five gifted internet just uh I I can't thank you enough for just hanging out here tonight with us and celebrating with the team this awesome project that we got to work on for the past year um it's been a labor of love but absolutely everyone that had their hands in this thing poured themselves into it and uh I couldn't be happier yo Roper get over here baby burst in last out for life uh short plunging into the drops will automatically give you a level of whatever click these are the short short points [Music] uh you can plunge into the inline content of the outline or one or 50 in the bottle Place High Five by doing the combos following that blinking teal light and then some other ones and then and then miss everything that works too holy crap I've been watching on my phone all night and finally realized I could watch on my PS5 all right it looks amazing I can't wait to play internet you get to play this at tpf at MTC at CBS uh oh yeah South by Southwest Optimus looming the background all right enough steady get in here baby ladies and gentlemen this is Eddy Hicks uh engineer extraordinaire yeah CVS uh STD um HPV you can play it everywhere also Walgreens well and a Walgreens foreign was very helpful in in helping your shot come to life you better believe it make that crossover nice and buttery internet you wouldn't believe how many times I bent something and then had my hand slapped it was pretty great it's a visual slap a mental slap um oh we got it let's go how can we make the Louisville show happen uh I think it's already a show all right who's in on the machine iron I want I want this guy's glasses yeah Eddie's got some good stuff maybe it's just a few others keep telling yourself do we have a player four yeah get on over here internet let's hear for Gabe Gabriel [Music] um We're not gonna tell you whose kid this is this is someone off the street [Music] I guess Jeremy's claiming him I don't know you could probably get an LD at a distributor if you act right now make the upper flipper easier to shoot so what the rammy should if you successfully shoot all the way up with the rammy shot it does Feed The Flipper slower than the center Shot yes yeah you can actually get a nice shot at the captain ball yeah absolutely and actually with that angle I think it spins it loops around more if you hit it from the side there's also a circumstance where if you hit that Capital really high it'll go through the center orbit and come back around again yeah oh yeah [Music] swearing can be turned off [Music] I think it is it default mature mature off the default is not mature we want to be family friends yeah all right player one that would be player one he's oiling his jaw internet hold on give him a second internet I free I freaking love y'all thanks for hanging out tonight all right here it comes I'm surprised you got cursing in there it's a Foo Fighters bro can you make it more mature yeah right absolutely action button will spot whatever shot is worth the most points you'll actually see the tractor beam suck up the uh shot in the points can you play co-op I think Tanya confirmed we're getting a co-op but that that's up to Tanya Ray and Mike I I'm not all right so you saw it he shot the right Loop there uh the right orbit that fed around several times now he's got two hearts Playfield that was a good joke oh yeah oh Jack explain your UFO button stacking rule you you came up with that oh yeah so when you're when you get a level of your UFO there's three levels you can get three uses and um if you if you use it at its first level or if you use them all really fast then it's difficult to get them back so you got to work hard to get them all back but if you use them sparingly then it's easy to refresh that use that you just had does that make sense it should basically it takes you know 10 shots to get that first level and then five shots to go to you know two and three so if you just hang out in levels two and three yep you're good but if you ever want to use that third one you're kind of you're you're in for it you know you gotta commit again all right who's that next thank you Pro mode the out lane is just a regular ball scene correct they're uh you can time a flip to get some bonus points but it'll it's just a normal ball safe again upper Playfield uh is used to work towards area 51. um awesome so once you light Area 51 you started on the upper Playfield and then in Area 51 that's where you can build your jackpot values and you know get super jackpots up there um there's also actually two combo inserts up there which um I forget I think they're mapped to the two side shots so like you can continue your combo upstairs and build you know massive combos that way [Music] uh Area 51 on the pro is just um five shots to the right ramp and it starts [Music] we we have the swearing turned on just for our mature twitch audience [Music] the defaults off internet did you know you had to be 13 to be on this platform and if you're any younger you need to go to bed yeah man Foo Fighters has followed me around forever uh I've all of these songs well most of these songs have a significance where when I hear him it gives me sort of uh PTSD is not the right word but like remembering the job I had at that moment of like Nostalgia I'm working I'm working in JCPenney folding a shirt or I'm working at Subway uh folding a sandwich but yeah I've been following this band for a very long time but what's Wild is getting to know like their deeper catalog stuff that I didn't really dive into uh as much until I was introduced to this project on player one all right player one yeah it was a Sandwich Artist Blanco that's the joke I just got a message from someone that just says want now any room to backhand shots I think you made all the shots like backhand friendly at least the left ramp and the overlord and the spinner um I saw Tanya backhand the rammy shot somehow that was cool I've had some balls backhand up the right ramp if you you know slap save hey Roswell rockers the Foo Fighters are in town looking for some overlords I hope those lies are just some military planes any Brianna references oh sorry I I couldn't read it that far I see what you said never mind not sure why there would be a Rihanna reference flying beams of death get here you can backhand that Target Without You clearing a drop internet Jody dangberg for securing the frickin licenses bro what a g [Music] did Dave get a special build like slash the uh I I don't know what I'm allowed to talk about there let's just say Dave Grohl has this pinball machine and is playing it currently we got the pat combo let's go [Music] oh you almost got an actual death save Lazarus all right look alive let's get it Eddie did I remember to buy one Frank so my daughter Emily says she's really proud of all of us and she feels so lucky to be able to play it for free oh oh frick yeah she was in she was in jamming uh helping us test some stuff that was awesome so thank you Emily and hello Kelly in the show So currently the code is sitting at point eight ladies and gentlemen um and uh we got we got lots of fun stuff coming it's his number one of a thousand off the line but that means This Game Belongs to Gary and it immediately has to go back unless it fell off a truck and we don't know where it went [Music] foreign [Music] get ready for Friday uh difficulty level internet I want to show you something but I forgot to set up the thing where I can do the thing on my phone [Music] Jack can you shout out to my son Asher what's up Asher thanks for watching buddy all right I say we get one more good game

those lights [Music] all right [Music] all my life I wanted to be a roadie that's right yeah right that was the second invisible dead post offering a chance to save the ball just kidding that's not real my player three yeah how's your roading I'm officially stoked secret outlines current code version is zero point eight zero what instead [Music] oh yeah there are uh at least six secret combos in the game uh there's one for Randy one for Pat one for Chris one for an eight one for Taylor one for Dave that involves a specific combo yeah you're getting a lot of Bones I love it yeah oh I mean there's a uh no It's gotta be aliens dude I'm trying to tell you years ago but you wouldn't listen recommended fish of the game I don't know put the bubble somewhere fun [Music] the rammy shot is the far left crossover ramp anyone [Music] my magnetic power [Music] you're fake gambling I love it yeah the Sonic radio uh targets are the mystery um they also like they alternate between lighting the overdrive on the outlane but that lane and then once you have that Lit then the light mystery and during uh hope it's all the awards Overlord had the perfect voice yeah I agree the pro version will not be missing anything um you could still get Area 51 multiball just by shooting the right ramp several times uh [Music] I can't think of anything that's like super I don't know I don't think so no it's almost in there yeah um set the Omega beam tool mind control how many white Woods did you make to get the final I think we did like Whitewood zero Whitewood one then we went to the DB and PV uh it wasn't a whole lot of major tweaking but at the end there was a lot of little baby tweets to make sure everything did what they're supposed to you legalized hell yeah someone just asked me Jack uh is the pro play field how does that shoot but you're missing on the pro is the the upper playfields um so the shot feels the same if you don't flip up there then you can play just like the pro on Ellie it doesn't have the secret magnet underneath the overlord [Music] it's a fun word we use for some reason in pinball uh we haven't used deuterate in a very long time and in fact I think they only used it for a very short period of time because it smells like vomit when it gets old but um there's really cool like plastic Stacks uh to make some cool stuff there foreign do you guys mind paying five more bucks for uh a license of whale noises I'm eating cereal while watching this stream hell yeah what's a dust it gave a mixer uh I don't know so you can uh if you're on free play you can put a DJ mixer and listen to all the songs oh yeah [Music] thanks Ken appreciate it okay [Music] extra ball off the Ricochet let's go Brady's doing what he does best hell yeah you mean hogging the game got him no do it blow it up can the UFO extra button help mode progress too yep it sure can let's say there's a shot that you know you might struggle with more than others and that shot's lit uh I believe it chooses shots um big favors left to right so um yeah whatever it's the most points will and then yeah Chicago yeah left right after that I want to get stereo 51 going so yeah if there's like uh like a loop you have trouble with or a uh I I don't know something [Music] I love this animation they use Pat as a ram to blow open the door this is uh the fine work at Tom kizabet and then and then the chase oh yeah Ray a is the the wingman on the the uh the coders on this game or myself Tanya uh Ray day and uh and Mike is a vet primary coders but yeah Ray's done quite a he's been on it pretty close since the beginning pretty early on [Music] foreign [Music] but for our game code and our system code that was the overlord with uh President Nixon [Music] wait he's discovering the secrets of the overlord that Overlord must have been around for a long time all right let's see meeting with like the so Austin is a mini wizard that you get from completing completing three of the of the city modes and then DC DC you get if you uh complete all six of the city modes um we have the overlords has three different multi balls on him um we've got fubot multiball which you can get to by by collecting all the fubot parts um let's see what else do we have and we have the overlord insert in the middle is uh for the final battle which you get you complete everything up to DC you complete multiball and then you get this epic final battle [Music] oh there's no you might notice too on the upper left ramp there's a incident says comatron that's a mode coming soon to your neighborhood that's not really a um it's not a wizard mode but it's a pretty fun thing that uh I think that everybody's gonna enjoy but I can't wait to unveil it [Music] we're planning on shipping uh code no it's going to be we're at eight eight zero now it'll be a higher number than that thanks for the clarification Tanya yeah you're welcome you know what we always go forward with the numbers we aim to deliver everything we can all right [Music] um Tanya what did the 5.25 floppy disc said [Music] Tom a kid about here can tell you that's one of the secrets I don't know what the Flocka did today yeah it's it's a com side final for college sort of look through the old family photos that stuff [Music] it seems [Music] all vacuum tubes are mine but uh if that was coded properly I would have had poop on monkey Ballers somebody uh foreign yeah see the idea is if you if you really kick butt and you get like them flashing they'll carry over to your next Ball but uh clearly the ones didn't actually carry they just blinked them give me balls that's okay I don't want to spoil everything I'm talking about okay [Music] um like once the once it stops getting the power right out there once and for all oh yeah you can actually stack I could actually bring Area 51 into this if I wanted to monkey Ranch multiple that's such a nice ring to it [Music] is it guitar or guitar yeah oh my God I haven't seen that shot has made it every single time Jack I don't know what's happening oh that wasn't a real shot that was like a slingshot [Music] no every time I've wanted it to go over there it went in there it's been great [Music] next yeah right I'm close to crying [Music] no no no you can get it on your Facebook right now I get it once you yeah once you feel like getting that shirt [Music] like do nothing else zombie Yeti is leaving internet everyone say goodbye to zombie Eddie [Music] how does the outline flipper save work chat you hit these uh Sonic radio targets progress there lights your overdrive when you drain the second it hits that rollover switch the uphost comes up it is your job to lift that left flipper do it there's a setting that it'll do it for you but that's that's dumb no we don't want I mean it's there it's there if you need it yeah yeah I do it all the time [Music] is there a setting to turn off soon [Music] uh yeah it should start remove the plumb bob [Music] oh there's like cute photos happening behind me [Music] I hope I'm not seeing what I think I'm seeing freak out with a Shaker motor this part is so cool now hear this [Music] what if you flip right when the post is on Rockets yeah break your invisible glass everyone wants that right oh my God buddy you're also kicking oh never mind I'm doing great Tanya [Music] policies at the start emotes nah [Music] lets you progress towards Area 51 multiball and also um get combos combos ier without yeah the van drop Target makes your next mode um so Tanya's actually he's got he must have got the skill shot because you've got the bomb at level one so when he starts a band mode it'll tell him be careful why yeah how frequently do you get multiball uh we anticipate probably get Overlord once again yeah they're actually not too heavy multiball um because the only multi balls are Overlord and Area 51 yeah and then the wizard modes so uh but you can you know you can stack them and there's three variations of the overlord multiballs inspect the multiballs together okay oh you can you can check over lower and while you're in Overlord on the upper Playfield if you can hit that Target during multiball yeah you can stack them I just learned something somebody answered asked question what is the Target in the very back a very undo yeah that that Target is what starts Area 51 and it's also the Super Jackpot shot well that combo is so good Jack the paddle yeah [Music] goodbye everyone thank you very much uh for all the people uh who have been kind and nice you're the greatest people in the world um everybody else is also great and and I don't care see you guys later my guy all right Mike here's the bat is there an Area 51 switch on the pro you just gotta shoot the ram go shoot the

selves into it and it's really showing shoot the Wham I love these intros they're so good dude the Chicago one's my favorite yeah I love these animations fun fun fact the default high score for Chicago is scary CERN Chicago's a champion yeah no kids it's a stand-up Target next to the shooter Lanes made to keep the ball out of the right outline wait what [Music] oh no I want you to drink those operators got to make money [Music] we got the expression lights on [Music] you can use your multiball to level up your you see how I left Clipper hit that pedal Target I love that so much man
