Zen Pinball HD

[ER777]

I just picked up a Samsung Galaxy Note II and of course had to try this out. Zen Pinball HD looks great and plays smooth and crisp on the Note II. I only played the free Sorcerer's Lair so far, mostly since I'm not a big fan of gaming on touchscreens, but I'll probably buy at least one table if nothing else to show my support of Zen.

It was just a small update to fix some compatibility issues with certain Android devices

Thanks! (10 characters)

Just noticed Google Play market says the app was updated 11/01/2013 - but I'm sure I haven't updated, the install on my device isn't asking for updates, and auto-update is switched off.

Kyocera Hydro - Android 4.0.4 (it's a cheap Boost Mobile phone but it actually works REALLY good considering)

Just thought i would add my thoughts and experiences for any help they might provide for zen or someone else with my phone wondering if its worth buying more tables...

I've had zen pinball thd for what seems like over a year... Maybe right at. Used to play it on my Dell Steak all the time before it quit on me last month (poor ly designed power port/plug..broke contacts a few months in..now won't charge at all). I worried it would be awhile before i could play again on a mobile device before hearing about the Android-wide release. Happy to report it works well on my "cheapy" phone. A few glitches/stutters...two lock-ups but after turning down the graphics and extra video enhancements no problems overall. It seems to act up a little more after trying to switch views mid game...not sure why but if i leave it on the starting view its fine. Also when playing vertically screen wise the buttons for entering your name for high scores are just greyed out..no arrows or X or checkmark. That also was also true for all the score pop up windows but i have those turned off now so it doesn't matter as much. This applies to all the tables except x-men which is the only table i don't own.

If i could ask for one change overall it would be for smaller pause and camera view buttons over the play field. They are huge on my tiny screen..like app icon on the home screen big...it blocks a lot of the upper right corner of the tables. It also covers up the dot matrix screen unless it on small which doesn't bother me as much because it blocks the table if bigger too but when it is smaller it really makes the size of those two buttons that much more obvious. It was never an issue on my tablet but on the phone its too big.

But all things considered AWESOME GAME AND WORK ZEN! Making this game accessible to more Android users is a very smart move ! Look forward to even more tables an every platform!

Could I please request - an option for touchscreen nudging (as opposed to shake nudge).

I use Sixaxis app (play with ps3 controller - using touch mapping).
The app cannot currently fake shake nudging, and when playing with the controller you obviously can't physically shake the device.
My ideal would be for you to copy 'the pinball arcade' s controls (screen split in half, lower for flipping, upper for nudging - left half being to nudge table in a left direction).
Or even better - allow customisable keyboard inputs.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Xperia Play

I have an Xperia Play and I want to test Zen Pinball HD on my Play. Please invite me to download this app from the Google Play store and I indicate how it works. Sorry for my bad English I am Hungarian.

I finally bought myself a $15 Google Play gift card and downloaded all of the tables while they were still on sale. Everything looks great. It will take a little while to get used to the nudging mechanic on my Galaxy SIII, but I use the motion controlled tilt function on the PS3 so it shouldn't be too big of an adjustment. Thanks to Zen for allowing me to feed my addiction no matter where I find myself!

any chance support for HTC evo 3D/HTC evo V 4G will be added? it's plenty powerful enough
Doesn't have to be 3D, just want to be able to play the game on the go without dragging around my Acer Iconia tab A500

I have the same phone. Did you actually try to download it? As soon as I seen the announcement I downloaded it right away. Seems to work fine for me!

Now I'm with someone else that said this. I'm not one to download any games on my phone for money never have but the wait for the 3ds dlc is killing me and to get all these tables for only 15$ is well worth it. Still only thinking about it though but I want to see most of those tables. Love the free one as I had my iPhone stolen a few months back and lost the chance to play it again. Zen I love you guys and for me you can do no wrong!

I just put up 285 million for 1st place on Blade and beat Dracula. Not too bad on a tiny screen.
I noticed that the right outlane can be brutal on this table if you dont have kickbacks activated. Nudging is something that is difficult so I didn't bother with it because I was getting too many tilts from a single nudge. I guess I was nudging too hard and it was registering more than one nudge. I tried lowering the sensitive of the nudges but then I ended up watching my ball roll right down the flipper and go out because I guess I didn't nudge hard enough. IMO, Nudging is the worst part of ZP HD.

Does the sale include Christmas day? (I know it was posted 18/12/12 for 1 week).

Reason for asking is I'm getting a Nexus 7, but it's all wrapped up till the 'Big Guy' has been.
I'm gonna be gutted if the sale ends Christmas eve.

Merry Christmas all BTW!

So glad to finally see this available on all Android. I'm playing on the Droid RAZR Maxx and it plays great. Please do work on the nudging though the current set up just does not work well at all. Looking forward to playing all these excellent tables, already have them all purchased...(how can you not for .99cents)

That's cool. I didn't try to jerk my phone, maybe that's it.

Question, does anyone know how to nudge these table. On FarSight's, you just swipe the table to the side, and it nudges, like it should. I tried that with these tables, doesn't work. Someone said the nudge doesn't work at all? Holy Christ.

Nudge works fine on my Nook tablet. To do it, I just quickly jerk the entire tablet upwards. Basically, nudge the entire tablet upwards. You can change the senitivity in the settings. I've been able to do several bang backs with this method.
