What is it?

PinGod is for creating pinball game logic with graphics display window. A pinball machine or a simulator can trigger the game and vice versa. Using the Godot engine these addons can be imported into a godot project and be ready to modify or build on.

Why that name?

The Godot game engine was used so it’s Pinball + Godot = PinGod.

PinGo or PinGodot?

We know who the penguin is and PinGodot doesn’t ring well. This isn’t a holy framework but you can make games fast like a Pin God so we can rest the case on that decision.

Is it difficult to learn and use?

Not really. Godot doesn’t have a steep learning curve and you don’t need to know everything to be able to finish a game or make scenes. There are full examples in the src with basic to advanced scripted games which will give you an idea of C# sripting tasks and how things were done. You should be able to lean back on PinGod doing the machine work for you while you compose scenes and do some simple C# scripting.

Advantages?

• Framework base that covers standard pinball machine features used across games
• C# scripting (or GScript)
• Easy to make 2D, 3D graphics scenes
• Collaborating with others on Scenes / Scripts
• Localization
• Recording/Playback of games saves much time in testing
