Remember 1973? Pink Floyd’s, Dark Side of the Moon, Wings album, Band on the Run, William’s Star Action pinball machine…. No, not that last one? Here’s your chance to enjoy this table from over 50 years ago.

 

Star Action features a unique turntable (in playfield-center) that spins when you hit one of two posts (remind anyone of the lamp from Tales of the Arabian Nights?). Spin it to advance through the ten lights around its circumference to get Double, then Triple scoring. Wide flippers are a little more forgiving than the sometimes shorter variant you often see in older tables.

 

This version, 1.1, features beautiful plastics, playfield, apron — and when combined with a masterclass backglass by @hauntfreaks hopefully it makes for a top-notch EM (electro-mechanical) table worthy as an update to @loserman76’s VPX contribution.


Hold left flipper (shift) before game start for options menu. Options include:

  • 5 ball or 3 ball play
  • Reset high scores
  • Change scoring values
  • Enable/disable add a ball star mode

 

Contributors include @Cliffy, @teisen, @hauntfreaks and @JCalhoun.

A team devoted to EM development is long overdue, and I'm happy to see it! This release looks and feels great. I can tell the physics aren't nFozzy, but they are very good considering that they aren't! Keep 'em comin', EMU. 🍻

Congratulations on your first masterpiece

...my enthusiasm knows no bounds. It's beautiful to look at and plays very well.

It's very nice that you (EMUnderdogs) have come together to put Loserman76's works in a new light. Thank you for your great work!!!
