Summary
Circus Maximus folds Kingpin/Pinball Circus projects after years of broken promises and stalled development.
Dennis and Tony discuss their recent activities: Tony's Baldur's Gate 3 playtime during staycation, Dennis's new county government job, and their gaming progress. The main pinball discussion covers Circus Maximus's formal failure to produce Kingpin and Pinball Circus, analyzing the company's broken promises to legendary artist Python Anghelo and failed business strategy despite early hype at Texas Pinball Festival 2018-2019. They also announce Stern's final run of Guardians of the Galaxy Pro in December and Haggis's progress on Fathom Revisited.
Pinball: We talk about Haggis and Fathom Revisited, Stern's final run of Guardians of the Galaxy Pro games, and the fall of Circus Maximus and its attempts to make Pinball Circus and Kingpin. Video Games: We get a review from Dave P on Doom, talk about E3 limping along, Steam being around for 20 years, Charles Martinet as the Mario ambassador, some Nintendo Direct stuff, Unity upsetting every developer who uses them, and SAG-AFTRA possibly striking in interactive media.
