A digital publication and community resource for pinball and physical gaming, built by a small, self-funded team.
Kineticist launched in 2022 by Colin Alsheimer, a lifetime gamer and pinball enthusiast who wanted to apply his technology, marketing, and business expertise to the pinball community after witnessing its power to unite people positively. 100% self-funded and supported by a growing team of writers and builders.
The pinball and physical gaming communities are vibrant but fragmented—heavily documented but not always approachable, prolific but economically unsustainable, and often hard for newcomers to break into. We think all that good can be dramatically amplified.
We build tools, databases, and editorial content that make it easier to discover pinball, find great creators, and connect around shared passions. The goal is a self-sustaining operation that supports career opportunities in the community and helps new generations discover physical gaming.
