BlahCade Podcast
1 hr 2 min
Summary
BlahCade hosts discuss streaming, subscriptions, Zen tournaments, and designing accessible pinball creation tools.
Chris and Jared discuss YouTube and streaming rabbit holes, MoviePass vs Cinemia subscription services, frustrations with Pinball Arcade fan forum culture, Zen Pinball tournament hosting with 30-35 weekly players, and the challenges of designing user-friendly pinball creation tools. They explore what would make a good pinball editor by comparing it to drag-and-drop game builders like The Incredible Machine rather than code-heavy systems like Visual Pinball.
a bit light-on for pinball talk this week, so in classic BlahCade Pinball Podcast style we talk about other stuff. The main topic centres around how you would need to tread carefully as a game developer if you were going to make a Pinball Construction Kit that didn’t suck and frustrate users. It’s an interesting theoretical discussion about something that probably won’t ever become a reality, so enjoy the speculation.
