Recently picked up a Hook pinball and had a question on one light.. The Jackpot light above the left swirly roundabout ramp.

On my game it only seems to get brighter or dimmer, not flashing.. Though it does turn off at times when other lights are off.. How does this light normally work? it seems odd the jackpot light would be on constantly.

A fun game. As much as I hate DE pins, this one seems decent. Just too bad DE couldn't come up with new sounds; I swear I'm playing LW3 at times. Even some of the music seems familiar. And yes, it has the ad in it for LW3 in attract mode lol
 
Never mind, searched you tube for videos and found the light was working incorrectly. Someone wired the light backwards to the wrong end of the diode. Switched it and its working perfect now.
 
Hah!

Its not bad on the sounds being repetitive, except for the 'hook, Hook, HOOK!' one, though not nearly as bad as the Leo on LW3

I dont mind the machine. The biggest gripe I have it is how long it takes to actually start playing the game when you hit start. And the wait between losing the ball and starting the next. It just takes a little too long it seems.

Nice game, I'm going to sell it however.
