We're going to go ahead and set it. We're going to have to watch out for the light. Is the parking lot working? Yep. Got it? Yep. I think we're ready. Do you think we should put a light on us to illuminate us a little better? Up to you, man. It's... Eh, you know what? We're fine. You can tell if it's good. No, we look great. We just look better. You got the lights with you. You can power there so you can easily put it out if you want. Oh, no, we're fine. It's good, it's good. Yeah, all right. So, what's up, ladies and gentlemen? Welcome back to Death Foot Pinball. We're at the Texas Pinball Festival 2016, and we're here at the Dutch Pinball booth in front of a big Lebowski. Good job. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you can say anything. Yeah. I'll hold this to him. And, yeah, they were kind enough to let us set up on the machines. By the way, that's the camera that was looking at your face when you're talking. Hey, man. It is very noisy in here, so hearing music and call-outs might be a little difficult. But you guys get to see us play this really awesome game, and it's going to be great. Is there anything you need to tell me about this game? Actually, no. It's an easy game. All right. Well, then let's battle. You can start by choosing a profile if you want. Oh, that's right. Yeah, similar. If you guys saw my Bright of Pinball 2.0, you can build a profile, and it saves it online. And you can also, I believe, watch online. Yes. What's happening? You can watch live. Yeah. Pretty cool. Well, it's easy. You just press two clips, select a profile, and you can choose one that you have. There I am. G-A-R-J-A-K-D-A-N-G-E-R. Jack Danger, baby. Up to you, dude. There are three skill shots. On the right flipper it comes up there. On the left flipper it comes up to the gun again in the ride. And the hurry up to hit it. One on the third point. If you do nothing, the one in the bottom over there blinks. Then you have different character modes that you can shoot. For multi-balls as well. If you have two character modes and then you hit the disaster, you get two balls. If you have three character modes, you hit the disaster with three balls. Up to five for multiball. And you have here also multiple, block the lights and hit the do-it-yourself. Rock and roll. That's actually basically it. That's what to do, you just gotta do it. Okay, up to you. Actually, start us off, I'm gonna hit record so we're saving this local also. Okay, let's go. I wanna beat Jack Daniels, but I'm not sure if I'll make it. I think I've played his good language. I got more experience on this machine, so who knows? Who knows? I'll let Jack start. Alright, here we go. So you said hold the right flipper and watch. Right flipper and it comes up at the... And then you have to hit the bowling. Okay, that's... You missed that one. But now you have hit, let's go bowling. So you select who you want to play against. What you guys do, the mod, the Jesus, if you make up your mind, hit the launch button. Now you have to look down. All right. The bowling alley. When you release the launch button, the balls fall out. Nice. Still, you're right. Hell yeah. When you have the ball connected, it will come out of the scoop. Great. That's awesome. Ladies and gentlemen, if you can see me and hear me, let me know. Nice. Get up there. All right. There we go. Still bowling. Oh, come on. Still bowling? Yeah. If you don't hit the right one, you'll do it. Right holding the... Yes, man. So you can't bowl again. I like it. I like it. Awesome. You guys can see? Hell yeah. What's going on, Internet? Let's battle the dude. Oh! Yeah! Dang it! Come on, baby. Yeah. All right, let's battle. Yeah. You got this. Come on, you got this. Whoa. I'm a bad bowler. All right, let's go. Yeah. The shots on this are nice, man. There we go. Good Jesus. Nobody in the house. It's a family home. Swear words at all. Yeah, no kidding. Swear words at all. Swear words at all. Come on, baby. Let's go. Johnny, you're going down. Folks, I can't really see any hosts or subs or stuff like that, so do me a favor and thank people with a sub for me. I'll love you forever. Boom. Come on. Oh, come on, Jesus. Judge Jesus. I like the bra pop-upers. Uh-huh. Fantastic. There's the carpet. Oh, come on. Come on. Come on. There we go. See, the rug moves back every time you hit it. That's awesome, yeah. It's unrolling. That's crazy. It's unrolling. And now, just one more. You like to run hard for the next ball, you'll have it. Oh, great. Then you'll be here. I'm going to blow it up. Well, there's a challenge. Three million with one ball. Yeah, guys, the game is a lot of fun. There's nothing I can really do about lights and sound in here, so we get what we get. One of these days, folks, we're going to have to stream this game in a more controlled environment. We'll head over to Scott Danesi's place. I'm also going to need a camera on the bowling alley so you guys can see down there. It's pretty legit. Unless you guys can see it. Yes. The real Wobbly Jam. Nice. And what's cool about what they're doing here, folks, is not only can you have profiles online and watch the game live online, but you're also, they have achievements in the game. So much like you have achievements on your PlayStations and your Xboxes and stuff, they built those into these games, which is amazing. And having an achievement platform in place would also lend itself really well to speedrunning objectives. RetroGamerGuy, this is the Big Lebowski. Yeah, there's a full throttle right behind us. Wait, Dr. Law. Man, I can't move around too much. So what are you shooting for here, buddy? Shooting for several characters. So what happens when you start a character? That's your mode? Yeah. Rock out. Five characters you have to shoot. So that was Donnie. Maude is the rollovers. You got Jesus. The dude. Walter. Nice. Does it have the video clips turned off? No, it's got them all on. I started Jesus mode and he said don't fuck with him. Here we go then. So I got one hit to the carpet. Yeah, if you hit the blue one, the targets up there, you can unlock the car mode. Oh, the handicap sign. Yes, and this one will open and the dude's car will come out. Well, let's get that. One more. Oh. We'll get it back up there. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. I don't know if you guys can hear the swearing coming from over there. Yeah, baby. Why did I do that? I don't know, man. I don't know. All right, we have one more hit to open the, you'll see the dude's car. We'll get it open. Yeah, it's a pole in there. Here, let me do this.

Thanks, John, John, man. Oh, Jesus, man. Oh, shit! Look at this! There's the swears, guys. I really like it. But it also has a family mug. But we switched this off. Good. Yeah, of course. You know, this morning, someone was here because there's also Maud doing the scene, and then she says, vagina. Oh, vagina, yeah. The guy was jumping up and down. Vagina. So I'm like one shot away from the rug mode and I'm one shot away from getting Duke's car out. Yeah guys, it'll uh... like I said, one of these days we gotta play this in a controlled environment so we can like hear it and just blow it up. Does Scott have uh... does he still have a prototype or does he still have... He's got a prototype. Oh, okay. Alright, we need one more shot to get the car out, so we're actually gonna...
