I love Jaki Crush and Demon Crush, but I think they can be easily one-upped. Some I die retro dev needs to come along and make the most fucked up pinball game of all time. One that will top lists for decades. I'm talking like, satanic death metal band album covers, designed by H. G. Giger, inspired by Dante's inferno, and turned into pinball machines. The idea will be that hell is a bizarre pinball machine and your soul is inside the ball trying to escape. The pinball will look like a crystal ball with a howling soul inside it.

Imagine a gross cancerous mouth level where you have to knock teeth out while the table screams in pain, with random claws that swipe at you and faces that screech and gurgle and ooze and so on.

A level where there's a pregnant woman in chains and every time you hit the belly it squirms around and she screams until finally a demon tears out of her stomach. The bumpers are blisters that pop, sores that bleed, boobs that spray acid, tumors that ooze, etc...

A table that is a giant alien demon face where you can hit his eyes hard enough for the eyes to pop out and become multi balls. Then you can enter the eye socket and erupt from its skull.

An area where every time you hit a button a machine feeds a baby to a demon until it gets so fat it splits open and a new path is available. There's barbwire and mandibles and insect stingers and hair coming from random places.

The rails that the ball rides will be diseased intestines with disgustingly realistic sphincters. The ball leaves streaks of shit behind when it comes out. Another railway is a gross looking vagina at the opening and a gross looking penis at the exit. At other points you enter maggot infested wounds and roll around beneath the skin.

Sounds like a pitch for "AGONY Unrated - Pinball Edition"

Likely conclusion? Some grossed out articles by game journalism followed by Sony/Valve delisting it and developer goes bankrupt as people celebrate
>nothing of value is lost
>gameplay was probably shitty
>let's assume that even though we have no way to check anymore
>that content has no place in current year

Wasn't there a very recent pinball game that's much more tame, that got censored for cigarettes and prominent bosoms, as some active cultists were more concerned telling off anyone who uses the word censorship they're wrong and bad westaboos than letting discussion and fanboy grieving continue?
I fail to see how feasible your idea would be, OP.

Sony is on their own with being a prude busy-body, Valve backtracked on censorship and is now allowing straight up porn games on the store, and Nintendo is saving console gaming with uncensored games. If Senran Kagura Peach Ball can make it, then OP's disgusting pimple ball can too.

I'd love a musical table with guitar strings and piano keys that let you play individual notes to solve puzzles while also making interesting music the whole time you're playing. Kind of life Rez or Flower but also throw in something like that piano puzzle from silent hill 1, maybe a Simon/rhythm game bonus stage, etc...

I don't usually play pinball games but I liked the look of the horror theme of Jaki Crush so I played it.

It's pretty good but is there really only one table?? Is this normal for pinball games?

Pinball FX3 (Zen Studios) and it affected the Williams tables they got the license for after they had them delisted from the competing "The Pinball Arcade".

>Pinball FX 3's digital recreations of the iconic Medieval Madness, Fish Tales, and Junk Yard tables feature many modifications to the original playfield, backglass, and side table art. Scantily clad women have been covered up with additional clothes or obstructions. Bloody swords have been cleaned. Cans of beer have been relabeled to be cans of soda. Characters smoking cigars have had the "pertinent items" (as the game's legal notice puts it) removed from their mouths.

>In console versions of the game, the tables are also stuck on "Family Mode" settings, censoring spoken voice clips such as Medieval Madness' famous "I'm Lord Howard Hurtz, who the fuck are you?!" This setting can be toggled in the options for the Steam version of the game, which does not seem to have an official ESRB rating (but which does still feature the edits to the table art).

Just read up on this, they weren't delisted, they chose to censor to get a lower ESRB rating. That's just them being pussies and it's therefore irrelevant.

> they weren't delisted
... they were. The williams tables are licensed content. The license for it expired for "the pinball arcade" so the tables were delisted there. Zen Studios acquired the license so they published pinball fx3 with those tables.. censored.

>they chose to censor to get a lower ESRB rating
Every single game in existence that had cut content and still released, "chose to cut content" to get a lower ERSB rating / console lotcheck approval / publisher contractual agreement approval. Even japan only games like gekisha boy, black matrix dreamcast, front mission 2, had their localizations cancelled "by developer choice" too.

Guess game censorship never happened at any time in history?

Or political repression in the URSS for that matter. Opposition parties were always free to voice their opinions. That they get rounded up for gulags under accusations of corruption, embezzlement, or treason is coincidental. They almost never were formally accused of voicing opposition to the regime, technically.

>That's just them being pussies and it's therefore irrelevant.
it's very much relevant because:

1/ it's an example of a much tamer pinball game that gets censored to be in line "with current day morals" (and i don't buy the ERSB10 excuse, cuts considered and a previous T-rated similar game by same publishers considered)
meaning: it can happen to "just pinball artwork no one cares about"

2/ agony unrated, which has the baby crushing, and inferno imagery OP is talking about, maybe OP's proposal is even more extreme, and wasn't even approved in its complete form by "console/platform holders" (Sony most probably)
meaning: there's a very similar case not too long ago, and it went through lots of pushback to even release, from game journalism to platform holders who now want to decide content. ERSB is strangely much more lax.

Devs targeting a certain ESRB rating is not censorship you autistic fuck. Steam or don't refusing to publish the game on their platform is censorship. Devs targeting a certain rating is just them being pussies. The end.

Maybe one should ask Digital Illusions CE (or DICE) about another Pinball game, since IMO they were the dev team that really pushed the genre forward with Pinball Dreams/Fantasies/Illusions, games that pretty much everybody played on their 16-bit home computers, but they also made some cool platform game like Benefactor. Their old games pretty much became the quasi standard for the genre... the later stuff not so much.

I wonder what DICE are up to today, I heard they're forced to make endless cash grabbing military shooters nowadays instead of the stuff they were actually good at.
