![]() I wanted to push Unity graphics as hard as I could. Instead of just rendering a couple images of the Sonic machine, I was going to put this into Unity. Finally the excitement of making a playable table won. I figured I could use the aforementioned Unity pinball kit for most of the physics and logic, then just drop my model in. Slowly the idea of making this an actual playable pinball machine started shifting my goal for the project. Sure enough, I found a pretty comprehensive Pinball Creator kit. Well, I wasn't considering making this a game - but just for fun I Googled pinball assets for Unity. As I made progress on my model, my friend asked me what game engine I was making this in. I thought I might do some light animation and record a YouTube video explaining how the machine might play if it were real. ![]() Originally I only planned on modeling and producing a few Blender renders. Not to mention that Sega already manufactured Pinball machines with other IP's.īut why was there never a physical Sonic Pinball game? I started imagining what it might be like if there was a 90's era Sonic pinball machine. Consider: Sonic 1: Spring Yard Zone, Sonic 2: Casino Night Zone, Sonic 3: Carnival Night Zone, Sonic CD: Collision Chaos Zone.Įven stranger, Sonic got a spin-off game, Sonic Spinball that was a virtual pinball machine for the Sega Genesis. The first four flagship Sonic games all feature one level with pinball mechanics, and in some cases both bumpers and flippers. I got to thinking how it's strange that Gottlieb made two different pinball machines for Nintendo's Mario ( Blue and Yellow), yet Sega never made an official Sonic the Hedgehog pinball machine. I wouldn't say I'm a huge Pinball fan, but I do enjoy sinking quarters in my local machines and slipping into the zone. I thank the aforementioned parties in advance for understanding this is a fan project, for the fans!
