Trident Pinball, manufacturer of the custom League of Legends homebrew pinball machine and seller of homebrew pinball parts and kits, is working on a new new prototype game - Beavis and Butthead. The new homebrew pin is scheduled to make its first public appearance at the upcoming Southern Fried Gaming Expo, which takes place in Atlanta, Georgia from July 28th through the 30th. Trident is bringing its League of Legends homebrew to the show as well. The game is still very much a work in progress, with a whitewood playfield that has no art and the possibility of additional targets, a gate, a diverter and even an upper playfield being added. It's been interesting to follow along as the machine progresses. I've embedded several of the update videos that Trident Pinball posted to YouTube and a couple of pictures of the games below. I hope that someone streams Beavis and Butthead from Southern Fried. I want to see it in action.
