Why a new logo? Does it mean the new UI is near to be released?

Now, let's compare:

The new logo is nice... but a little too much heroico-gothico-fantasy (why this gothic font for Arcade, and this purple monster hand?).

I don't really see the connection with pinball in general. The incandescent light bulb in the ball is a nice touch, though.

A matter of taste (without the monster hand, and keeping the red main colour of the previous logo, it could be ok).

 

[Dedpop]

I hate it.

The 'the' and the lightbulb ball are very much in line with The Addams Family, as is the lightning bolt. So hmmm, I wonder why the change

 

[DanBradford]

Maybe they are coming out of the closet?

 

[IGoFirstIndy]

It reminds me of zen pinball for some reason.

 

[Dedpop]

Yep. Me too.

 

[Bowflex]

I would say it is just temporary. It looks somewhat in line with Addams family so once that promotion starts to settle down it will probably change again (or just go back)

 

[David Pannozzo]

Maybe that's a weird sign that we won't have to do Kickstarters for licensed games anymore, and also were going to see some amazing changes with The Pinball Arcade. One can at least dream, am I right.

One year sure goes by really quickly...

I want to see a Wizard of Oz Table. I just thought I would mention that!

Camera fixes: Includes both plunger and gameplay, set to align with other tables. Here are the changes anyway:

Addams Family: Angles were changed, compared to previous iterations. #3 is noticeably higher.

Attack From Mars: Plunger Camera was changed to align with other tables, and the third view is higher than previously.

Creature: Camera brought back to the point of seeing the top part of the apron.

Diner: Camera brought back to the point of seeing the top part of the apron; third view is slightly higher, and Plunger Cam #2 allows sight of the jukebox.

El Dorado EM: Camera brought back to the point of seeing the a bit more of the apron.

Fireball: (Honestly, I can't tell any difference.)

FunHouse: Camera #3 is noticeably higher.

Medieval Madness: (Honestly, I can't tell any difference.)

Ripley's: Flippers no longer close to the bottom of the screen; #3 pulled back to reveal part of the apron.

Starship Troopers: #3 is much higher, possibly eliminating the problems of seeing the upper lanes during normal play.

Twilight Zone: #3 pulled back to reveal a bit more of the apron.

Have you ever played it in real life? It's not good.

If you're referring to the Jersey Jack table I totally disagree. I played it multiple times at the Silverball Museum in Asbury Park and loved it, the Hobbit is great too.
