On the front of the pinball just below the flippers there are two places for instruction cards. Usually these have a bit of paper on the right that says “\u00a31 – 3 Credits” and one on the left that has some kind of vague suggestions for what to do with the ball, e.g. “shoot at stuff and things might happen.. and err.. press the flipper buttons, ok?” Basically the ‘standard’ ones are a bit pants.<\/p>\n

Behold! My super funky new instruction cards! Blatently using a sh1t load of stolen graphics from google image search \ud83d\ude09 The top one is going to be for the cost stuff. I haven’t quite figured out how to set the prices on my machine at the moment, so I haven’t put the cost in, but it’s going to go in big yellowy-orange letters under the ship picture. What I want is one credit for 10p (WOO RETRO PRICING!!) .. but at the moment my pinball is spitting out 10p’s and instead is giving four credits for 20p! .. I’m sure it’s quite simple to change, but I haven’t figured it out yet.<\/p>\n

Under that is the instruction card. The standard one is black and white, so i’ve re-done it in LCARS yellow with a black background to match the metal under the flippers. This pic doens’t do it justice. Both are printed on photo paper at 600dpi and look wicked!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
