4''Lexy Lightspeed - Escape From Earth'' is a {{Physical Pinball Table|s}} designed by Creator/DennisNordman and TJ Weaver. The game was released in 2017 as the debut title for the Creator/{{Multimorphic}} P[[superscript:3]] modular pinball platform.

6Intergalactic adventurer Lexy Lightspeed was just cruising around a backwater arm of the Milky Way galaxy when her flying saucer gets shot down over an insignificant blue-green planet. Now she's stranded in a top secret government facility with a busted flying saucer, no weapons, and surrounded by nasty Secret Agents on one side and hostile aliens on the other. Fortunately, she's being aided by her smelly pal Lookie and a few friendly local boys. Can they (and you) help Lexy repair her ship and get away before TheMenInBlack close in?

8A separate DownloadableContent game, ''Lexy Lightspeed - Secret Agent Showdown'' is also available. Help Lexy blow off some steam by loading up her flying saucer with pinballs to start the 8-ball multiball, then gun down some Agents and go for the Super Duper Jackpot.

10!!''Lexy Lightspeed'' contains examples of:
11* Area51: The game begins Lexy and Lookie crash-landing in Area 53.1, a secret government facility on the edge of a Florida swamp that hosts a number of aliens.
12* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: Lexy's pal Lookie is a brown-grey sasquatch.
13* BlobMonster: The attacking alien is a grey blob with hands.
14* BugCatching: Shooting the left orbit allows Lexy to collect assorted Earth insects.
15* CaptainErsatz: Lookie is an obvious knockoff of [[Franchise/StarWars Chewbacca]] -- he's a tall, brown-furred, and [[TheUnintelligible unintelligible]] sidekick to a human protagonist. (That his name heavily resembles "Wookiee" only cements the connection further.)
16* CrateExpectations: One mode requires you to navigate various rooms in a warehouse, then [[DieChairDie smash the crates]] inside to find parts needed to repair Lexy's saucer.
17* DeepSouth: Lexy and Lookie are aided in their escape from [[Area51 Area 53.1]] by Little Larry and Ronnie Earl, two redneck brothers living in the nearby Floridian swamp.
18* DrinkingContest: One mode has Lexy compete with Little Larry to see who can drink the most mugs of beer. Successfully downing enough drinks enables "Seeing Double", which doubles all Secret Agent bonuses.
19* FlyingSaucer: Lexy's spaceship is a round red saucer with fins, retro rockets, and seats for two. It also doubles as a ball lock for the various multiball modes.
20* {{Gasshole}}: Lookie's profile suggests that "silent but deadly" farting is a talent of his. It proves useful when he searches the swamp, as he creates bubbles of swamp gas which can fuel Lexy's flying saucer.
21* LaserHallway: The "Lab" mode requires Lexy to disable a room full of laser sensors in order to retrieve her weapons.
22* LocalHangout: Larry and Ronnie frequent the Fire Belly Bog bar.
23* TheMenInBlack: The Secret Agents of Area 53.1 (which secretly houses aliens) wear black suits and SinisterShades. They start going after Lexy when she crash-lands on their turf.
24* MrFixit: Ronnie Earl can fix anything with nothing more than duct tape, bubble gum, and a few parts from Area 53.1.
25* ShootingGallery:
26** An outdoor shooting gallery with four targets sits in the upper-right corner of the playfield.
27** The "Shooting Range" mode is a four-ball multiball where the objective is to shoot the center targets to destroy aliens.
28* ShoutOut: Lookie is specifically identified as a [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti sasquatch]], echoing Bigfoot's prominent role in Creator/DennisNordman's earlier game ''Pinball/WhiteWater''.
29* SpellingBonus:
30** L-I-T-E-L-O-C-K enables the ball lock.
31** L-E-X-Y increases the bonus multiplier.
32* TractorBeam: Shooting the orbits will sometimes result in a tractor beam temporarily capturing the pinball.
33* TheUnintelligible: Lookie speaks entirely in grunts and grumbles.
34* VariantCover: In addition to the standard game art, cabinet panels with an alternative design are available from Multimorphic.
