Next Pinball Ride Updates

In the past few months, we've been working on new features, very exciting stuff. But at the same time we've been fixing many of the bugs that we've been reported.

New features will need a few more iterations because it's quite not yet ready. So we decided to release a bug fix only update really soon. And the new features will come in a later update.

More details very soon.

Ranking and High Score Reset


To keep competition active, we archive previous high score, and reset current high score. It happens every month for Story mode, and every week for Burst mode.
We do that in order to shake a bit the ranking between players and friends that would stay quite static otherwise.
Previous high scores, and all-time high score can be accessed in the Ranking section of the menu.
(See our posts for October Ranking and September Ranking)

Monday November 1st, Story and Burst scores were both archived, which may have surprised some of you. (And did probably look like a bug).

Right now, Pinball Ride's user interface lacks clarity regarding this feature, but we are working on it. Considering the feedback we receive by email each week and month, we'll put even more energy on it.

More update announcements soon, stay tuned.

Thanks for playing Pinball Ride,

The Pinball Ride Team,
