Free To Play
On May 10, the game will be going free to play. The base game will become free for everyone, but DLC still cost money.
Why?
The game has evolved into something much larger than I originally planned thanks to all your support. The game was originally never going to have DLC and was meant as a one-off experience, but I am very happy with the enthusiasm some of the players have shown towards the game.
This is simply a way to reach a larger potential audience and for more people to enjoy the game.
How Does this Impact the Players?
Simply stated, you shouldn’t notice any real impact, other than hopefully more contestants on the leaderboards.
DLC will continue and pricing will NOT change. I will NOT be incorporating loot boxes, gacha mechanics, battle passes, energy systems or any of the stuff typically seen in mobile and/or other free to play games. This is simply a way to make the base game available to more players.
Upcoming Changes
Mentioned above, I will continue to make DLC for the game and support it as always. Pricing will NOT change, and I will continue to support the game as always with a mixture of free and paid content.
I don’t plan on doing weekly updates anymore, instead focusing on larger patches. I will always employ hotfixes ASAP should the need ever arise.
There will be a patch on May 10 that introduces some improvements/fixes to old tables, and I am glad to announce that we will be going to SPACE! It is something that has been highly requested, and I am always listening to feedback and suggestions.
Spread the word, share your love for pinball and please continue to enjoy the game!
Finally, here is a preview of the new table select screen (work in progress). This should make selecting tables much faster/simpler.
