Dimension Quest Pinball
Costumes Changes
A Frightening Finale!
+ To fit the Halloween theming, costumes have been entirely overhauled. Now special outfits have special health bars! For example, all retro outfits now have a sepia tone color scheme!
Halloween is Here!
Help Flash fight back against the undead to save Halloween and put old ghosts to rest, and make use of the powerful Teleburst! Upon activation, the Teleburst allows you to...
- Aim anywhere in a radius around Flash
- Teleport instantaneously, conserving all prior momentum
- Damage enemies in a large area around where Flash teleports
All for 1,500 points in the main game or free in the event itself!
Pre-Chapter 4 Update!
GAMEPLAY CHANGES
- Chapter 3 has been adjusted to be easier to navigate while still retaining the majority of its original intended difficulty.
- Paper Jadon's got a surprise waiting for anyone who enters Chapter 3! If you've already beaten the game, it's highly recommended that you replay Chapter 3 as Paper Jadon before Chapter 4 releases.
- Boss health bars will turn translucent when the player is near them.
- All bosses have a dynamic pop-in when reaching their arena.
- Zap Cottos are now twice as large to make hitting them easier.
MENU CHANGES
The entirety of the game's UI has been rebuilt from the ground up to be fully navigable using keyboard and controller, including a new in-game keyboard for the password menu! You can now freely adjust volume, change character costumes, and quit game without ever having to touch the mouse.
Speaking of adjusting volume, the options menu in both the main menu and the chapters themselves has been given a clean overhaul! Audio and resolution are now available universally instead of resolution settings being unique to the main menu, and are split across different sub-menus to avoid clutter.
Pause menu art for characters and bosses are a bit more stylish, and properly underlap the shadow around the edge of the screen.

Big Boss Balancing
[CHAPTER 1]
- The Grand Grass Stepper has been given a new arena. Falling down no longer requires you to climb back up. To compensate, his health has increased from 10 to 15. This change was due to fan feedback about the frustration involved with trying to climb back while being constantly hit by boulders.
- The arena shared by Mikenze and the tank has been adjusted slightly, the slopes on the bottom are steeper.
[CHAPTER 2]
- The Grand Splash Stepper has been moderately reworked. Rather than becoming fully invulnerable when spinning, she instead gains 60% armor and moves 100% faster while spinning. This was done in response to feedback by fans and the dev team finding the boss tedious due to how often they went invulnerable.
- Charles has been given a new clapping attack. This attack knocks the player away from him, but spawns a sand rock from the small island in the center, and this rock can be sent back at Charles to knock him out of his anger state! Much like the Grand Splash Stepper, this was done in response to feedback of the boss being far too difficult and tedious.
[CHAPTER 3]
- The helicopter moves very slightly slower, about 5%.
- David now has a new attack in the form of throwing a straight line of potions at the player. This was added due to the David fight being less dynamic than originally intended.
[BUG FIXES & ADJUSTMENTS]
- Fixed a common bug where skipping dialogue would sometimes leave the left side character face remaining until the next cutscene would occur
- Fixed a bug where a boss's health bar and pause screen would appear sooner than expected
- Added introduction cutscenes to the Grand Grass and Grand Splash Stepper minibosses
- Fixed a rare bug where David's right arm would be permanently stuck, preventing him from attacking with it
The Reduction Update!
- Changed 1-1 to have a more consistent plunger and slightly more room to move.
- Changed 1-2 to lower the top two steppers and provide provide visual consistency with other chapters. More changes coming with Chapter 4 around June.
- Changed 2-1 for greater consistency, players can now launch straight from the plunger into 2-2.
- Changed 2-2 to make the exit slightly wider for easier progress to 2-3. The board overall is also slightly wider.
- Added a new section for the main menu options. You can now set your game's target framerate to 30, 60, 90, 120, or as high as your computer can take it.
- Menu animations have been added for the sake of smoothness and making things less static overall.
- If you've unlocked Valentines, the bonus event is still active and will remain active indefinitely.
