the guys have been quiet and news has just come out that they have a secret deal with a particular company in which they designed, made and shipped a few hundred games out to unknown companies around the world at this stage, another company gearing up - amazing how many companies are involved in pinball at the moment and near future.

What is more interesting is that whenever I share pictures of my factory all I get is grief, nasty emails and shouted down by the keyboard commandoes........but all of this is OK?? I can't work it out?

Why go there in a thread about another companies setup. If anything they have backed away from going public about there pin until time for official release as they want to get everything perfect. In the end you can do this as well.

I have been communicating with Andrew for quite awhile and he is a nice guy and extremely passionate about pinball - I hope he knocks it out of the park with his first game and many others, good luck to him.

Full throttle is not my cup of tea theme wise but it is nice to see some updates on the game.

I don't get why they would.

One thing I really like about this pinball company is that you can hook up to the internet and compete GLOBALLY!
How cool is that? Just wish they would keep us a little more informed, in a small world and boasting internet capabilities they should PR much, much better.
I still want Circes Animal House! Are you listening Andrew?  ^^^

I think in the end after some negativity from forums etc Heighway retreated a little, hired a few pinball designers / artist to polish a few designs and do some new ones as they have 4 in various stages and then release when everything is dialled in. And pretty sure Circes Animal House is in the near future as well.

At least he is setting up with out holding his hand out for cash from customers ……..   @@*

I am sure he would be happy to show you around...
