Alien Star, a single level 2-ball multiball table from 1984.  I ran across this watching some Papa videos online and decided I needed to play it.  There were a couple vp9 versions out there, but I don't play those so I took the map from the manual and started building from scratch (well ok, I stripped down Hollywood Heat and used that as the base).. fast forward a few days and here we are.

I know there are many inaccuracies with the table, and missing artwork and whatnot, but until I have better resources to work with this is what we have.  I do think it plays well and is a lot of fun, be sure to watch some videos for tips on how to score big.. hint involves right-inlane and spinner + multiball if you can manage it.

Thanks to hauntfreaks as usual for graphics help and play testing.  download contains a directb2s that was a complete rebuild of wildman's on VPU with new art and lighting.  also contains portrait and landscape POV files (table set portrait for my cabs). 

 

NOTE: table is a couple years old, have not tested on 10.7 beta.

When I got into this crazy 'hobby' a few years ago, I stumbled on this build and it was amongst a handful of tables I got running that made me realize this vp stuff is badass and not a video game.

High adrenaline and extremely rewarding, one of the all time VPX greats!

 

P.S. @rjclarkee..well if it is "super" why only 4-stars? Bit of an oxymoron bruh?

I just discovered this table.  Amazing job on this.  It's a fun table to play and I really like the sound effects and light show.  One of my favorites now.  Thank you for making this table!

Very fun table. One of those that seems like it's especially eager to eat my imaginary quarters as quickly as possible, but in a way that makes it rewarding when you do mildly well. Thanks for sharing!

Table does play and work well with 10.7, I'm having fun with it, thanks for sharing.

Once again surprised to find a pinball that I did not have.
Can only say it is fun and the game is straightforward.
So thank you once again for a great experience.

Fantastic version......a really fun table as are a lot of the 80's Gottliebs.........I own ROCK, another 80's Gottlieb and same rules apply for good scores - spinner all day.  Thanks for the work and effort.  Mucho appreciated!!
