As a Happy Thanksgiving to *ALL* our VPU friends around the world EM Underdogs is very proud to present Gottlieb's 1970 Snow Derby!

Just in time for the winter sports season, Snow Derby brings great fun in the form of a skiing and snowmobile race around the pylons. Slalom your way through the spinners and rack up the laps to increase your bonus! 

Snow Derby is the 2 player version of Snow Queen.  A specially commissioned version is Bristol Hills which was made to promote New York state's winter sports.

 

EM Underdogs actually started this massive update in July 2024! Fleep sounds were added along with all the spectacular visual work. It's truly a beautiful and evocative pinball.

@Silversurfer vectorized the plastics and cleaned up the playfield art

@teisen Did much of the color correction, metals and lighting. He also modified JP Salas lighted numbers for the ball in play instruction card! 

@hauntfreaks made the shadows and extra lighting. Of course he updated his fabulous B2S linked above as well!

@Cliffy Made sure everything was as accurate to the real thing as possible and created much of the fine detailed visuals. Correct spinner brackets with animated rods- Check the period correct custom made lockdown bar! Cliffy also created the log cabin backdrop with skiing motif and used Hauntfreaks b2s elements to make nice crisp desktop scoring. There is also a backdrop in image manage for use with Haunts B2S

 

We hope everyone enjoys playing this beautiful rendition of a fabulous Gottlieb pinball. 

Time to hit the slopes!

A gem of a table! Thank you so much!

It plays really well, good lighting, crisp graphics and the sounds for SSF are spot on. Very cool!

...another masterpiece from EM Underdogs!

Not only does it look fantastic, it plays great!

It's also nice that you kept the hum of the coils!!!

Thank you for many hours of fun with this table!

Response from the author:

Indeed! We actually bumped up the volume of the flipper coil buzz :) I'm willing to bet it's actually there on many tables but too quiet to hear

Nice job guys! A nice little touch is seeing the instruction cards tilted in anaglyph 3D.

image-9.thumb.jpg.76515e186264b8c019937c6abf8b54ce.jpgReally great job, looks and plays great! One thing I might point out is the lap lights in the center should be numbered.  Thanks for a really great update!!! 

Response from the author:

Not sure what you mean but the inserts in the race track are blank on the real game. We used several real game examples and one restored playfield for reference

awesome table! do you plan to release a snow queen one as well?

Response from the author:

Eventually, that and Bristol Hills since they all share the same table. It's simply (HA! Simple he said) a matter of editing the script to add the 4 player stuff back in and, of course, creating new desktop scoring for the backglass. 

Follow @EMUnderdogs and stay tuned!
