I don't think I will have the patience to last this out without some regular game updates.
I will certainly be giving updates on our progress and the progress of parts being made etc but I won't be in a position to present much actual gameplay or artwork if that's what you are looking for.
There is a reason why my price is $5432.10 - and not $11,000 - I am not paying several staff to do nothing but apply to the licensor every second week and then provide updates....think about that. I would rather spend that money on developing a better game and/or better mechanisms etc.
I have already said MANY times that I will NOT be re-inventing pinball.
Thunderbirds Pinball will be a standard body, DMD, single level game with ramps, subways, two flippers. It will run an embedded board set not unlike WPC era but with thousands of improvements. It will have Thunderbirds toys and sounds/music and hand drawn art that will be identical to "Classic Thunderbirds" (as that is my licence) NOT photoshopped. It will be a fun game to play with easily understood rules BUT with a deeper rule set for seasoned players to enjoy. People who love Thunderbirds are obviously very happy that I am building this machine. If Thunderbirds isn't particularly "your thing" I understand that - it's fine - there are plenty of other machines available - this machine isn't for everyone, not all machines are.
A bit of imagination might be required but really, not that much, it isn't that hard to predict what a Thunderbirds Pinball might include really, is it?
I really don't know what else you might be looking for and it wouldn't matter what I showed anyway as there would always be someone who didn't like it for all sorts of reasons of their own?
You can see and play it when it's finished and if you like it the RRP at that time will be $7490.00 (if there are any left then) - and that will still be many thousands cheaper than other offerings.
I don't have a problem that you want to see more, I just can't understand what exactly you want to see? I have already explained about the licencing - unless someone wants to come on board and work for free for two years to do nothing but apply for release notices and pay from their own pocket for photograhpic sessions and video work there is just no point taking this discussion further.
There are other titles that I have in the works and I won't be saying much about them either - I will also be highly unlikely to be offering discount deals up front for them as I have done with Thunderbirds. They are more likely to "just appear".
I hope the above clarifies some of your points.
