Trebek "High Rollers" Game Show Control

Here's a "High Rollers" game control mechanism that I developed in Visual Pinball. It's based on the Alex Trebek version of the show. The hardest part of the project was extracting and editing clean sound effects from episodes of the show.

Features:
- Integrated Lock-Out system.
- Randomly generates game board numbers and detects hot columns.
- Automatically awards hot columns, cleared-board game wins, and Big Numbers wins.

Controls:
1-9: Clears corresponding #'s
Enter: Starts next game / restarts game
Left Arrow: P1 Wins Game
Right Arrow: P2 Wins Game
Left Shift: P1 Buzz-in
Right Shift: P2 Buzz-in
P: Pass Control
Backspace: Clear Buzzers
B: Bad Roll
D: "Doubles" Insurance
T: Theme (Press any key to stop)

Zip file includes the Visual Pinball 9 Installer, Instructions Reference Card, and game file itself.

Fonts needed for this program are: Gothic No. 13, Future, Wingdings 2, Wingdings 3, Arial Narrow and Futura BdCn BT. Most of them can be downloaded for free at this site: http://www.qwizx.com/tpirfonts/

The Megaupload site is gone. Is it possible if you could please upload it to a different hosting site?

[cartoongameshowman]

What program did you use to extract and edit the sound effects to make them clean?

[Nickle98499]

@Nickle98499 Never mind, I saw the link in the description.
