I found the teaser trailer on Youtube

Looks surprisingly traditional as Zen tables go, but note the ramp on the right that just ends in mid air. Also, the rising platform at the bottom left suggests somewhere for ships to emerge onto the playfield
Zen makes good arcade games, but they're certainly not pinball simulations.
I used to play a lot of Zen when I first discovered it. The reason I stopped is because, for me, a lot of the fun of pinball is the challenge of keeping the ball alive, but it's just not there in Zen because of the tiny flpper gap combined with the heavy physics. It's too easy to control the ball, so I personally don't get the adrenaline rush that pinball is supposed to provide. Thankfully TPA does a much better job of capturing that.
I was playing ZP2 just last night thinking that it needs some new blood. The Avengers tables were great, PvZ was OK I guess, but ultimately a letdown. I found the gameplay somewhat boring and repetitive. This table may be just what ZP2 needs.
What's that all about?
I was watching some Zen pinball youtubes. One thing that bugs me is that when you shoot the ball there is this (and I have no clue how to explain this in english) white flash/smoke trail from the ball. What's that all about? Is that something you can switch off? Physics seem to look realistic. If Star Wars is without the stupid animated figures I might buy it. (At least if it will be available for the iPad?)
