Description

Extreme Pinball is Epic Megagames' successor to Epic Pinball. Included are four tables: Rock Fantasy, Medieval Knights, Urban Chaos, and Monkey Mayhem. The key differences from Epic Pinball are:

  • 320x400 resolution, as well as taller tables, both allowing for more objects

  • a "Dot Matrix Display", where the scoreboard shows 3d-rendered animations as well

  • more sensitive controls and a faster ball, which make the game feel slightly less like real pinball, but make the gameplay more exciting

    The mission of Extreme Pinball is to immerse the player in all of the table features, rather than having them focus on how to master a particular maneuver.

    Trivia

    Scene links: Sound effects were done by Alex Brandon, aka Siren/ex-KFMF, known for his music in the Epic games Unreal, Jazz Jackrabbit 2, and Tyrian. Yes, that includes all the animal noises in Monkey Mayhem :). The music for Extreme Pinball was done by Robert Allen, who also composed for Epic's other pinball game releases.
