WOW! Thank you xenonph. The table is beautiful!! I was very excited to see it today.
I really love the audio and the lighting ... especially the blue flashes and the firey explosion.
This is awesome!!!
 
xenonph updated Last Starfighter, The (Taito, 1983) with a new update entry:

Last Starfighter, The (Taito, 1983)

There are 2 versions available.
All of the following changes are on both versions, except the Pup version has animated apron videos.

v1.01 PUP
Moved the "holes" for the right slingshot from the playfield, to under right slingshot.
Added a lighting effect "under" the explosions animations.
Added holes and wood areas in the playfield under the 6 targets.
Added a very light "shadow" to the playfield art for the plastics.
Re-worked the apron preparing it for the pup version.

v1.01 no PUP :( for me.
Too bad, it lost the animations that were in the beta but if they were causing issues for others, I understand. It'll be on permanent availability status nonetheless.
It is a beauty, it is "chatty" but not boring, has lots of action, sci-fi theme (my thing, and 80's sci-fi on top for extra kudos), cool effects, a retro-future vibe that brings back that feeling every kid had while dreaming of going to space back then, and great gameplay ... Did I miss something? :)

Thanks for the kind words!
I do plan on finishing the apron animations in the Non-PUP version.
I only had the drain animations left to do. And fixing the script for the in-game animations to work correctly.
I also do not have Pup installed, so I feel your pain!:iagree:
 
Anyone who passed through the 80s could've said the same.
I'll be here for the next updates. Take your time.
 
Thank you xenonph.

This is a fun table based on a good movie. The table plays great here. Nice work. :)

    @xenonph, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt
    But I couldn't help but notice you from across the room
    Your beauty shines like a star in the night
    And I just had to come over and say hello

    Excuse me, but I couldn't resist
    Your smile is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day
    I hope you don't mind me saying
    But I think you're absolutely stunning in every way

    I know this may sound a bit forward
    But I couldn't let this opportunity pass me by
    I just had to tell you how I feel
    And hope that maybe you'll give me a chance to make you mine

    Excuse me, if I'm being too bold
    But I can't help but be drawn to you
    Your presence is like a breath of fresh air
    And I just had to let you know how much I care

    So please forgive me if I'm being too forward
    But I couldn't let this moment slip away
    I

    Excuse me, can I take your seat?

    Excuse me, can I borrow your car?
