Posts having to do with Arcade Machines and Pinball Machines!
Hey Everyone,
By now you may have seen the post by Spooky Pinball where we revealed the final artwork for Total Nuclear Annihilation. I am so happy with how this whole thing turned out and the artist, Matt Andrews, captured what I was going for in this game. Below, you will find the images that Spooky shared along with some other glamour shots not yet seen! 🙂 Enjoy
Hey Everyone,
Last night was awesome! Total Nuclear Annihilation was featured on the Dead Flip Twitch TV stream and we had a blast! We even showed a glimpse of the beautiful backglass artwork by Matt Andrews.
Here is a recap video of my best game ever on the machine!

Also, for fun, since you guys could not see the backglass very well, below are a couple pictures of parts of the digital copy. Enjoy!
Full Backglass:
The version of the backglass shown last night on the Dead Flip stream was a version without cutouts for score displays. We made this one first in case we could not use these displays in production, but I fully expect them not to be cut out of the production game.
Hope you guys/gals enjoyed!

Hey followers! So a lot has been going on behind the scenes lately. I have some really cool announcements which I will give more info on later, but here is a high level list of cool happenings with the Total Nuclear Annihilation project.
This project is now called Total Nuclear Annihilation in order to distinguish itself from the 1990’s video game. These are not the same!
Yes, you heard that right. Total Nuclear Annihilation will be produced! Although this was not my original intent, Spooky Pinball has agreed to work with me to get this game into your houses and bars near you.
I appeared on the Spooky Pinball Podcast this month and we talked about all sorts of pinball stuff.
Listen to it here: http://www.spookypinball.com/podcast-2/
You guys already know this, but art is not something I do well, even though my mom is a professional ceramics artist, this did not flow well down the bloodline, and definitely does not mean I know how to do awesome pinball art. 🙂
Matt Andrews will be doing all the art for Total Nuclear Annihilation to bring it to the next level!
More info on Matt Andrews here: http://www.mandraws.com
I am also proud to say that David Van Es will be doing the LCD animations for Total Nuclear Annihilation as well!
Thank you to Ed and team at TPF and Dan and team at MGC! I had an amazing time there with the machine and am glad I had the opportunity to show it.
Total Nuclear Annihilation will be at SFGE this year on June 9th – 11th at the Spooky Pinball booth. I will also be there playing dollar games.
Dead Flip will be guests again at the Sleepy Nut Tavern and streaming the Total Nuclear Annihilation whitewood machine!
There are lots of new features and graphics, so make sure to tune in. There also may be a hint at what the artwork will look like. 🙂
Stream starts at 5pm CST. https://www.twitch.tv/dead_flip
And, a big thank you to everyone for the great feedback on the game. I really appreciate it and I love watching you guys and gals enjoy the game. Thank you once again!
That is about it for now, I will update again with more details soon! Thanks for following!
Hey Everyone,
Just a friendly reminder that Total Nuclear Annihilation will be at the Multimorphic booth this weekend at the Texas Pinball Festival in Frisco, TX! Come by, say hi, and play the game. I am good for free high fives if you need one. See you there!
Hey Everyone! In case you missed it, the Dead Flip crew stopped out to the Sleepy Nut Tavern on Friday 3/3/17 and played the crap out of Total Nuclear Annihilation. Below is Part 1 and 2 of that night. Enjoy!
Hey Everyone,
The time has come. I invited over a few buddies and we got a gameplay video of my current code set. The code is still very early and the video camera recorded on a setting from the year 1990 (sorry about that). 🙂
OK, enough of my blabbering on, here is the link to the video. Enjoy!
Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that Total Nuclear Annihilation will be set up Friday night, through the rest of the weekend, at the Multimorphic booth at Pinball Expo in Chicago! Please come by, play the game, and chat. I will periodically have the game opened up for people to view the inner workings. Remember, if you are caught wearing a Total Nuclear Annihilation shirt, you get a free high five. See you guys there!!!
Thank you everyone that ordered a Total Nuclear Annihilation shirt. I really appreciate it. I have ended the campaign and we were able to raise $41.39 for the American Cancer Society. I know it may not seem like much, but every little bit helps. You should be receiving an email notification with your tracking info from Teespring in it shortly. Remember, you will get some sweet high fives if you wear your Total Nuclear Annihilation Shirt to Expo! See you there!
Hey Everyone,
I wanted to make a Total Nuclear Annihilation shirt to wear to Expo this year and I was turned onto this site. If you would like one, they are available below for $19.14. These are only going to be available for a few weeks until the campaign is over. Any profit made from these shirts is automatically donated to the American Cancer Society by TeeSpring.com. If I see you wearing one at Expo, my friend Doug and I will give you high fives, and I am sure some others will too. 🙂
Hope to see you guys/gals at Expo!

Hey Everyone,
I know it has been a while since my last update. I have been working very hard on the machine getting it ready for public viewing at Expo 2016 in October. I have done a bunch of stuff to the game, but unfortunately, I am not going to show it here. You are just going to have to come out to Expo and see it for yourself. I promise I will get a bunch of pictures during Expo for those of you that cannot make it.
I have also been working on the story for the game, so here is a little introduction. The year is 1988. You will be traveling from this time into the distant future to stop a civilization from discovering reverse time travel. This civilization is pretty advanced, but their weak point is that they run nuclear power as their main source to the power grid. You will need to activate and destroy all 9 main reactors that they have on the island. Unfortunately, you will not be able to return.
Total Nuclear Annihilation will have art, music and sound effects with a 1980’s vibe. The color scheme is Neon Green, Neon Pink, and Orange.
Below is a glimpse at a few of the attract mode screens. These may change in the future, who knows… Looking forward to seeing you guys and gals at Expo! Enjoy!
Hi Everyone! All of my software, sample packs, and instruments on this website are provided for free! However, if you would like to help keep my projects going, please consider donating below. I truly appreciate it!
