Hi,

just if you are interested. Pro Pinball will return in a new, modern technology!

Just look for the kickstarter with the title just the same as this post.

Backed this. Missed their first campaign unfortunately, but I'm confident that they will make it this time. Loved Timeshock!, so I can't wait to play an upgraded version.

I put in £60 as my pledge, because I like big boxes (and I cannot lie). Hope this gets seen - we're only £5,000 away, that's 500 people at the £10 mark!

It will easily make it. Kickstarter's typically see a large boost the last few days in this one still has 2 weeks left.

The more, the merrier.
The campaign is about to finish. Best get in quick.

I really hope this pans out for them. Going with Timeshock first was definitely the right move, given that more people rate that at #1 than any of the other tables, so hopefully there'll be good profits for them.

I guess the mobile market is the big unknown here, and potentially the big cash cow for the project -- if they can nail the game on those devices, and get some rave reviews in the right places, I really hope that mobile users will be all over it.

They'll still have the same quality vs quantity problem they always did -- making the uninitiated customer understand that a pinball game with one table is worth their money, when other games provide multiple tables -- but if they can get traction in the market, I can only imagine the future of the Ultra series will be assured.
Well, it's over and they just did it.
They were actually 20% over in the end, having passed the initial target with a week or so to spare. Not too shabby, but certainly not a runaway success -- I guess that's confirmation both that the original Kickstarter didn't have much chance of making its target, and that they pitched this one about right (even if they were still hoping for more).

I hope that they take the time they need to absolutely nail this Ultra version. The original set the bar so high, that they need to do a good job of it.
