Pinball is something Linux has been lacking in variety, so it's pleasing we get another! Pro Pinball Ultra is now officially available on Linux & SteamOS.
Since it's in Early Access I will likely leave any proper thoughts on this one until it's finished.
If you pick it up, be sure to let us know how it runs!

After the praise -> it's early access and while the table itself the menus feel like early access. For example there are only 2 viewangels at the moment and you can't change them on the fly. I hope for the future of the product and i can't wait for them to release more tables from this series.
Bought -> played -> and fall in love again.
Of course, like anyone, I expected the table to be 3d model. But this proves it's actually a pre-rendered view. The big advantage is that it looks absolutely perfect. But you are restricted to the views they give you, which is currently only two of the five.
I found another disadvantage. After 15 years without Windows, I'm thoroughly out of practice on pinball games.
