DPP #150 "Spooky factory visit! Alice coming...soon?"
Lot to cover this weekend starting with Spooky pinball's new factory tour! It looks amazing and games are cranking along so much faster now. Number 13 is coming and I can't wait for the reveal. Alice in Wonderland is also closer to a full reveal and I hope it makes it while there is still some hype, haha. Also a great new episode of We Are Pinball dropped so check that out. Expo is close now you guys! donspinballpodcast@gmail.com
Kineticist’s take
Spooky factory tour reveals new production, hints at Game 13; Alice hype cooling due to slow reveals.
Synopsis
Don reports on a factory visit to Spooky Pinball new production facility in Benton, Wisconsin, revealing improved manufacturing efficiency and quality control. He teases an unannounced 13th Spooky game (to debut at Pinball at the Beach in February, not Expo) featuring Christopher Franchi as artist. He discusses the prolonged hype cycle around Dutch Pinball's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, expressing concern that delayed reveals are dampening community excitement despite the game being well-received in private playtests.
