Farfalla (1536x2048)

 

[gooche77]

Wow. Looks gorgeous!

 

[Kolchak357]

Farfalla is one of the tables I've been waiting for. The color and art is stunning, and look at all those drop targets.
Screen shot looks great. Can't wait to play it.
Interested to find out exactly what the premium camera does and what the glass options are. Looks like a fun update coming.

That looks fantastic Zsolt! The added 3 in apps (camera, physics, graphics) is that going to be included in the Gold membership? Or is it going to be an additional cost?

Thanks again for your hard work! I can't wait to play Farfella!

Gold Membership includes everything, so gold members will have these new in-apps too.

Wow, so colorful!

Can you please provide more information on the new premium camera, physics tweaks, and graphics tweaks? I only purchased a Silver membership and want to determine if I should purchase them when the update is available. The reason I didn't purchase Gold membership is because the only difference I cared about between that and Silver was the Dark Environment. So I purchased Silver and the in-app purchase Dark Environment separately. If I had known there would be more in-app's coming up I would have purchased Gold instead!

 

[DeeEff]

Howdy, Zsolt - Zaccaria looks great, but I'm holding out for better nudge action. Once you do this, I'm in for Gold.

 

[Lord Boron]

So....you have to pay extra for improved graphics and physics? Is that correct?

 

[Jeff Strong]

Looks really good. I'm very curious about the new physics.

 

[night]

If the artist Jeff Koons was asked to create artwork for a pinball machine then it would look like Farfalla. Superb retro-kitsch pop-art. Really looking forward to this table and the updates. Glass and graphics update sounds interesting. I hope the stuttering issues on Champ 82 will be solved as well.

 

[Jeff Strong]

Any chance we could see a new gameplay video of the improvements?

I love everything about this update and the new table! Tremendous!

Can you PLEASE create translucent red flippers for the generation 2 games?

This is such a characteristic piece of FARFALLA it should not be missed!

If you are successful with creating the translucent red flippers, please create translucent blue ones for TIME MACHINE (RED and BLUE)

and install the RED ones on these generation 2 games:

I love this phrase from the Farfalla flyer: "Dynamic play appeal achieved by coordination of micro electronics and electro mechanical wizardry".

 

[Richard B]

Farfalla has the best looking backglass I've ever seen, and the playfield is also beautiful, especially in a dark environment. They had one of these at the expo back in March, but unfortunately I only got around to playing it once.

 

[Zsolt]

So....you have to pay extra for improved graphics and physics? Is that correct?

No, you don't have to. That doesn't mean you will have worse physics and uglier graphics if you don't buy these in-apps. For example you can change angle of the playfield in physics tweaks menu, but you can't set a higher value than simulation mode.

When is the new update due out?

 

[Zsolt]

When is the new update due out?

We haven't managed to sent it to Apple for review at last Friday as we planned earlier. The main reason was the new physics. We found some issue in the physics engine during testing at the last minute. The new deadline is this Friday, but we will not send the new update to Apple as long as the physics engine has problems.

 

[Zsolt]

Here is a screenshot about Graphics Tweaks menu. As you can see you could change the following new settings:
- UI (user interface) has 3 options: FULL, FADE (camera and menu icons are faded away in some seconds) and MINIMAL (only alphanumeric display).
- GLASS and BACKGROUND can be ON and OFF
- RGB levels, intensity of lamps, inside and outside lights are also adjustable by your taste
