Как запустить Space Cadet 3D Pinball на Windows 7, 8 и 10

Пинболл Space Cadet для Windows вышел в далеком 1995 году, став частью апгрейда для Windows 95. Впоследствии игру выпускали вместе с Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 и Windows XP — она пользовалась такой популярностью, что стала культовой убивалкой времени. Однако с тех пор Microsoft не выпускала пинболл.

Печалиться не стоит!

Если вам хочется убить часок-другой, то файл Space Cadet можно официально скачать с groovypost.com. Правда стоит учесть, что игра работает в разрешении 640×480 — в те времена 1280×1024 была верхом технологий.

Hey, remember that Space Cadet pinball game?

Причина, почему Space Cadet пропал из Windows, до смешного проста — код игры был разработан сторонней компанией и никто в Microsoft не понимал, как он работает. Так как код не включал ни одного комментария, сотрудники Microsoft даже не смогли найти ключевые элементы, вроде детектора столкновений.

Как сообщает PCGamer, файл по ссылке выше был проверен — вирусов и майнеров не обнаружено.

Эта мордашка такие воспоминания навеивает. ммм..

• 

@shevelestas, это без претензий, но я головой кручу и мордашку не нахожу — подскажите где она?
вот это?

• 

Если майки не поняли такой простой код.. мне страшно за винду

@Insider, ну по сути 10ка и так ужасна. О каком пинболле речь, если они винду нормально не смогли сделать?

@Q-Tuzoff, а чем она так ужасна??

ппц у кого то bad-трип был что бы об этом написать новость. !)

@Q-Tuzoff, И каким же место она ужасна?
@Insider, Вот интересно, чем ты думал прежде чем писать свое бредовое сообщение?
Это не 3 строчки кода, и без комментириев проще написать новую, чем разбираться со старой.

Не помню этого убивателя времени. Сапера помню. Часами высчитывал. А эту хрень — открыл. хм. Ну, забавненько. Close

из-за этого пинбола у меня с детства высокие требования к физическим движкам в играх=))

Microsoft не выпускала пинболл

Лол что? Официальный пинболл от мс есть в магазине винды

@Regate, я сам разработчик и написал ты тут бред.
1. Если код не комментируется он объесняет сам себя
2. Если ты прогер и не понимаешь код — debug в помощь
3. Если у майков, нету людей знающих C (именно на нем игра), это их проблемы.

Нужен ремейк на Unreal Engine 4

@Vitalson, начиная с бесячих обновлений и заканчивая дебильными плитками. Только не надо говорить что я сам устарел и что все настраиваемо. Мелкософт адаптирует винду «под всех», чего не должно быть. Это задача яблок и макоси. От 10ки требуется изначально работать нормально без всяких обновлений и отправки данных. А как пройдет обновление, так начинаааается. То процесс сжирающий 100% ресурсов процессора или диска, то вообще не загружается и помогает только переустановка с нуля. Они хоть понимают какой бред их винда творит сама по себе? Зачем это?

@Vitalson, и еще было дело. Поставил как-то, инет сразу заработал, еще не успел ничего отключить или настроить, как поехали качаться драйвера. Какого хрена? Я просил? В итоге на видеокарту поставился более старый драйвер, чем на сайте производителя и САМОЕ ГЛАВНОЕ — установился экспериенс сам, который я обычно отрубаю при установке. Нет, это шутка какая-то? Нахрена?! Я не просил ничего за меня ставить, просто я даже отреагировать не успел на это. Вот и какая она нормальная система после этого?

Пинбол для Windows — «Звёздный юнга»

Эта игра имеет неиспользуемый текст.
Эта игра имеет отладочный материал.
Эта игра имеет ревизионные различия.

Пинбол для Windows — «Звёздный юнга» фактически одна из 3 таблиц от Full Tilt! Pinball, выпущен Maxis’ом.

Основное отличие геймплея заключается в том, что Full Tilt! Pinball имет мультибол, Пинбол для Windows будет присуждать «повторы» вместо блокировки шаров.

Содержание

Режим Отладки

Во время игры введите hidden test. Теперь вы сможете управлять мячом с помощью мыши и получить доступ к следующим функциям, нажав соответствующие клавиши:

• Y: Строка заголовка изменится на «Pinball». Возможно, это было оригинальное название, и оно было использовано для его проверки.
• M: Появится окно, показывающее объем памяти, используемый в игре. Строка заголовка также изменится на количество кадров в секунду.
• H: Заканчивает игру с миллиардом очков. Тем не менее, счет всегда будет ниже первого законного счета.
• R: Повышает вас на один ранг.

Режим Обновления Кадров

Если все четыре функции отладки доступны, в любом порядке, игра начнет превращать все обновленные кадры в красный цвет.

Выбор Таблицы

Меню содержит опцию под названием «Выбрать Таблицу», которая не отображается в реальной игре, по-видимому, осталось от Full Tilt! Pinball. Сообщение Другая таблица не найдена (No other table found), который аналогично идет неиспользованный. Опция выполняет код, который предположительно предназначен для того, чтобы игроки могли выбрать таблицу, но в этой игре отображается следующая ошибка:

Редактирование Компоненты

Есть окно под названием «Редактирование компонентов Пинбола ТОЛЬКО ДЛЯ ТЕСТИРОВАНИЯ» (Edit Pinball Components FOR TESTING ONLY) в исполняемом файле игры, который также находится в Full Tilt! Pinball. Он не может быть повторно включен в игру.

График Плунжера

В растровом изображении фона таблицы есть невидимая часть плунжера.

Различия Версии

Версия в комплекте с Windows NT 4.0 имеет информацию Full Tilt! Pinball в экране «О программе. «. Это было убран в остальных версиях.

Иконки

Версия Windows XP получил обновленную иконку. Старая иконка технически все еще находится в версии Windows XP, используя как запасной вариант когда Windows запущен при уменьшаемом количестве цветопередачи.

How to Install 3D Pinball Space Cadet on Windows 10

If you’re old enough to remember Windows XP, then you no doubt remember all the classic games Microsoft packaged with it, including 3D Pinball Space Cadet. Unfortunately, with the later releases of Windows, including the most recent Windows 10, Microsoft dropped most of the built-in games. In a previous article, we explained how to install all your favorite classic Windows games on Windows 10. Today, follow the steps below to install my favorite classic game, 3D Pinball Space Cadet, on the latest version of Microsoft Windows.

How to Install 3D Pinball Space Cadet on Windows 10

1. First, download the 3D Space Cadet executable file. You don’t need to extract it; double-click the WinRAR file and click Run.

3D Pinball Space Cadet works on 32 & 64-bit versions of Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8.1. I also just tested it on Windows 10, and it works without a hitch! Have fun!

189 Comments

That was a classic. Countless hours of my life I will never get back trying to make sure no one ousted me as the top score.

Oh yeah! Man, I used to waste soooo much time at work with this one! I loved it. And I don’t regret a second of the time I spent on it when I should of been working for the man.

Good Lord, I really thought, being something of a Luddite, that I was probably the only one playing what I assumed everyone else thought was “the lame pinball game that Windows stuck in there as a selling point to non-gamers & parents”. Not having a pc at home, I too spent countless hours being paid on 3rd shift to get really good at Space Cadet.
Some years ago, the head office made us all work on a crappy Citrix virtual desktop(w/almost all customizing features removed, ’cause, you know–we’re all children who’ll burn the place down if we’re allowed to pick our own color scheme; they even took away the clock in the taskbar, saying, “What do they need that for?”). Now, I’m still on that awful virtual desktop, but telecommuting from home. When I realized the W7 they made me use to do so no longer had the game, I was severely bummed. I spent years wondering if there was something like it, but not knowing where to look, etc. I was resigned to Free Cell as my only choice when I wanted to zone out for a bit.
Now, I try a vague search on a whim, find this site, and it’s so easy(although I think I clicked the wrong thing–sorta–since I never got Step 2. It just went straight to Start, so I dragged it to Games. Looks like the same end result to me.
Thanks, not only for putting this out there, but for making it so easy even a near-computer-illiterate like me can do it. You’re a mensch.

I too got paid to play this game when I was doing security (FOMCLOL) at a wood mill. I would stop in on this one station and play a few rounds. I considered that one of my 15 minute legal break. So much fun!

Ross, at this game I was a boss. ain’t got no time fo this comment cause ya boy gotta floss. who will win this epic rap battle, it is truly a toss. ha, random freestyle. I love your comment on this game, as I too spent days in a daze. countless hours I plays. as I figure out this maze. hopin you will be abazed. lol. settin scores ablaze cause I see through this haze. oh dear. needs to stop now. randomly searched for and found this game again, as you did. What joy. just in time for christmas. justin’s crime will diss us. (just because it rhymed.) have a good one Ross.

Yeah, of all of the XP games, I played Hearts and Pinball. And while I had fun with Hearts, Pinball was soo fun. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! This is one thing I wish they still had…

When i was younger i used to book the library computer just to play this and minesweeper

thanks a lot for this man..classic good game!

I can’t download it. I don’t know how

I miss playing this as a little kid at my elementary school when the teacher wasn’t looking. 😀
Ahhh, good memories…

I’ve missed this so much…you’re a God of the interwebs.

Yeah…. March 2018, still a great game on Windows 10!

Thank you SO MUCH for your helpful info. I searched bunches of sites looking for this classic game that I loved on my old XP computer. I found the download files on the weebly.com page, but wasn’t sure whether or not I could trust it or not. Your page made me feel confident that I could.

@Sharon: Glad to hear that! It definitely brings back nostalgic memories for me!

Heey champs, thanks :D’

its great i love this game it brings me memories

Yep it always does, xD

after searching for a while. i finally found one that actually works and dosen’t make me do unecessary stuff 🙂

Thanks a lot, I didn’t know there was a pinball for win7, so I started using vmware with a xp virtual machine and needless to say its a pain in the butt.

Stefano from Italy

Thanks a lot, Brian! The game is ok on my Windows 7 Professional but the help file is not available (part of XP guide, I think…). Is there a way to have it on Windows 7?

Help File? Are you having issues with something?

The help file conatined a clickable picture of the field that showed the rules of everything you clicked and what it did.

click on the table image file, shows what you described

I do remember on the old Pinball Help files for Windows XP you could click on the image of the table and it would tell you what each element of the table was. There is no help file “How to” for Brian’s download. But there should be tons of tips for the game by searching online.

when i go to full-field play mode, which is the only way to play, the controls freeze and the ball disappears. So: unless i play in 4″ mode it is a no go. man, i would like to play again.

Great old game. Nothin like going old school. Game is still great after all these years.

The game works but there is no sound… I can listen to the music but not the noises when the ball hits off stuff.
I just tried it with some headphones and the sound works. Perhaps it was my speakers. Hope someone finds this useful.

Bradley Vahn Brewer

Hey man, I know this is a month late, but I was also having this problem. I found changing my default sound format from 24bit / 96,000Hz to 48,000Hz fixed it. You do this by right clicking your primary sound device and choosing properties. Next click the advanced tab and change the format there. I assumed since it was an older game it would not support the higher format and changed it. Worked for me. Cheers!

Thanks so much for sharing this. The game literally popped into my head for some reason a week ago, and I’ve only just gotten round to looking it up today, and yours is the only one I’ve found without faffing about. Amazing game as I always remembered; I can’t thank you enough for this opportunity to revisit some nostalgic memories of Windows 95, almost 20 years ago. Thanks again 🙂

Honestly, it’s a great pinball game. I still play it. Hey, why mess with a good thing! 🙂

Wow… are we really that old! HA

sitting in the airport and thought of this game. You rock!

I here ya. It’s a great ole game!

thank you thank you thank you.

Dude I love you for this!! Have a wonderful christmas!

does this work with windows 8?

Yes! I just installed it on Windows 8 and it works fine. You can also extract the RAR file to a USB flash drive and run it from that.

Hi!, are there some other pinball games as good as this one? have found several online but they’re in slow motion an not as good as Space Cadet, greetings!

Thanks man – I’m looking to all the pinball games on iOS and Android – and they make me cry… This is the best pinbal game ever!

many thanks for this game!

Thanks dude. I haven’t played this since I had my windows 2000, And now I have it on my Windows 7.

Thank you so, so much. I have really missed this game and every once in a while I could play this [months would the gap between the last time I play this] and now I play this almost whenever I want. Thank you so, so, so, VERY, Very, much.

Ok, Brian Burgess wins at the internet. Seriously, thank you so much! You’re supremely awesome! I haven’t played this game in years and I’ve been craving it. I used to play for hours when I was like 13. Thank you!!

Can anyone help me plzz. …I can’t get the “sound” to work on space cadet. …I’ve downloaded & deleted & downloaded again & again but the sound of the flippers won’t work, everything else works fine though. I’ve read all the above comments and tried to understand one comment about changing the sound format? but not sure how to do this, and not sure how to find my default sound device or format? Sorry but im thick as a brick. …can I plzz annoy anyone and ask for some help I don’t know what the heck im doing lol sorry

Sorry to bother you again but I’ve now got the sound working, though I don’t know how I fixed it. lol. …..I mucked around with the sound device thingy. …didn’t know what the heck I was doing or have done, but now it’s working beautifully.
Just wanted to say I don’t need any help now so you can scrub these msgs from the website if you like. It’s still a mystery how I got it to work but it is working and it’s gr8888888. I love it thanks for all the helpful advice and the great download link you put up. Woohooooo it’s working. Thankyou again.

let me play first

Download worked perfectly. Works great on Windows 7 Pro.
The best Pinball Game ever.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Back in the saddle again

my high scores are 86,327,000 // 66,111,000 // 63,173,750 // 52,385,250. Game number 2 is 1,000,000,000. I tried the hidden test or something and could not get the original score back. Even though it is the highest points, it still shows as number two.

I think it is saved in the memory that the hidden test will come second

is there a way to get it on windows 8 .

Yup. Just install it like normal on Windows 8. I have it running on my Windows 8 Pro system right now!

yo i got mcafee virus protection … a hella good version and it stopped me from downloading it because it has a virus in that file i clicked up at thetop of the page …. everyone who has tried downloading it by clicking that link at the top of the page now has some bad ass virus or spyware.

why is my computer teling me this .

Well, that’s a false positive. I’ve been running it and before I even suggested the download link, I ran it through VirusToal which scans it with 46 different brands of antivirus utilities.

I would imagine because it’s an executable that will make changes to OS files is why Macaffee is flagging it.

One thing is certain, on this site we ALWAYS verify any files we link to are safe and malware free.

ALSO were did u originally get this file from anyways .

yea i tried downloading it again and my virus protection is saying its putting my computer at risk and that i need to remove it immidiately …. i guess it would be easy to put a virus in it without anyone noticing…. looks like only a handful of people downloaded so that means a handful of peoples info was probably stolen off there computer after they downloaded this file .!

i really want this game so if it is legit and not full of viruses do u think u could send me a diff kind of link so i could try to download that . i cant get enough of the game !! i literally just leftwork an hour ago and i wanna play it some more ..

I uploaded it to my Public SkyDrive. Here’s the link: http://sdrv.ms/1a9WIPT

The reason it’s being detected as malware is because when you install it, files are added to your root drive in Microsoft Games directory.

Commercial antivirus programs like McAfee and Norton are often overzealous with detection. They also take over your entire system, which is why we don’t recommend those types of antivirus software programs.

You should have a setting in McAfee that allows you to ignore the flag. Again, all I can do is assure you 100% that this is not a virus at all. I have installed it on all 6 of my Windows PCs and this is the first time I have heard of an antivirus program flagging it as a virus. It’s not.

I’m having no problem at all with the program – I’d just like to install it. I can’t find it though… Can you possibly give me some instructions on how to uninstall the program?

Never mind on the last comment. I was looking in programs in my control panel instead of just plain files. Deleted successfully! Again, there was nothing wrong with the program. I just needed to uninstall it.

Thanks. Worked perfectly and your site didn’t try to cram a bunch of other software down my throat!

on mine the ball flickers in and out and i can’t tell where the ball is… please help

I have missed this game like crazy. Thanks so much for giving us access to it!

Hi, thanks for putting Pinball out there, really good game. Unfortunately there is one problem ,for some reason my computer is unable to play in full screen, despite playing in full screen yesterday, it just won’t work now.

My OS is Windows 7 computer and my screen resolution is 1280×1024

Try it again but first turn off Aero Mode. sometimes Aero can interfere with things like this on legacy games.

Hi, thanks for the response. I found the solution, for some reason Pinball wouldn’t play in the resolution I have my computer set to, so I changed it to 800×600 and it worked. Thanks for your help anyway!

I installed it on Windows Vista but it’s not saving the high scores. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks alot!

Hi Marcio, I have the same problem! I downloaded it on windows 10 and it isn’t saving my high scores, I’m really disapointed.

any help, please? this is unbearable 🙁

I installed it on Windows 10 Pro and it works fine, sound, high score, and all.

Awesome. I have looked and looked since XP was no longer available. Everybody I knew had upgraded to Vista or Windows 7. One fell in my lap one day so I thought I would copy the game to a flash drive. It worked also, but somehow got deleted and the flash drive got stolen with all my others. I had since upgraded that computer to Win 7. I tried to recover it from the old.win file which was unsuccessful. I did see the Pro Works flipper.cad file. That gave me the idea to search using that name. Pro Works Pinball. Here it is. Thank you so much for making it the easiest install ever!. I am a huge pinball fan anyway. They are ICONS now, basically a thing of the past unless you have a lot of money to buy one. I’m 56, a female and this is the only game I like to play other than Keno & Super 8 Keno. I can play these by myself, try to beat my own score. This was just a great experience. I hope this stays available to all those who want it and find it. Meanwhile. I’m going to copy the file to another flash drive just in case this page gets taken down. I don’t want to ever lose this game again. I’m saving the page to my favorites too. It is true that the Aero on Windows 7 can interfere with things, especially wallpaper and screen savers. My resolution is set at 1600×1200, 32bit. Good luck to everybody who loves this game. Also, I use Microsoft Security Essentials, and Spy Bot. No flags for me.

Thank you very much, is it really that long ago…this will make my mum very happy too, can’t wait to surprise her with this. I’ve found a way to get her to sit at the PC again !

thanks very much, sir! been craving to play this game again for days! i still remember me and my sisters used to have battles for this game and see who got the best score. thanks!

I have a tablet; Visual Land model, Prestige 7G. Will Space Cadet pinball be able to load play on this tablet?

It seems that is a Android 4.1 Jelly Bean device. This is a .exe (executable for Windows). The final conclusion is you can’t run it, due to Android always being based on Linux, and Linux doesn’t support .exe files. Sorry man. If you have a Windows 7/8 computer, go on the computer, and download it!

I tried downloading your game the other day and I decided to delete it because the installation wasn’t working. Then today o noticed it popped up on my computer all installed. I was thrilled to play it again but as soon as I clicked it my computer crashed and now all my settings are messed up. I’m running a scan on my computer on safe mode and it says I’m at risk. I’m pretty sure your download has a virus on it. So be aware to anyone else you plans on downloading it.

Hi Steph, Please tell me what AVs your using. I wouldn’t recommend the following AVs: Norton and McAfee. These take over your whole system, and detect non-virus files as viruses. It detects it as a virus because it’s trying to install Pinball and it’s copying files to the “Pinball” folder and the people who make it make the AV freak out at installers because they’re copying files that are labeled by McAfee/Norton “viruses”. But they’re not viruses.

I can’t tell you how much I have missed this game. Decided to give a search for it one more time, and ran into your site. Thanks a bunch for this…has REALLY made my day, week, month, and year…Yippee. Shows very small on my screen, and have to go to full screen to really see it good…will have to mess around with screen resolutions to see it better. Thanks again.

I installed in Wins 7 64-bit, help menu does not work, and F keys do not work, the rest does if I use the menu options to operate. I tried running as Admin, and that did not help. Anyone else have those problems with 64-bit?

I have the same situation, but I believe that I read I would from the get-go, so I am not bothered by it. Everything else works just fine, and that is ok with me. I am using Win7 Pro 64-bit.

It made me make half life 3.

Man this game is the best! I played this on my old windows xp but then it broke. Now I can play this on my new pc!

Helen from Estonia

THANK YOU. It was years ago…..

Thanks, my husband asked me yesterday if I could put it on his computer.

I can’t believe it! Thank you, dude. I haven’t played this since before I finally retired my crappy XP PC 2 years ago. Seriously, THANK YOU.

Of course! And ya know what, I still play it all the time 😉

i have issue with sound, i don’t have a sound actually..i tried to change sound format as someone said but that didn’t help. Is there any other way to solve this? Thanks.

Hmm.. I just tested and it works 100%. Sorry you’re having issues.

you cant get the game here.

It 100% works, trust me.

The link “3D Space Cadet executable file” returns a “404 page not found”.
I’m sad.

Thanks for letting us know. Not sure what happened there. I moved the file to my personal Dropbox (just so I don’t have to pay for the bandwidth when people download the file…). 😉

xD, I thought this was BS but I came here and saw the reply. lol.

Thank you for the quick response.
———————————————

I suppose you’ll need to update your instructions.

1) you will need to sign up for drop-box, if you have never done so.

2) the file downloaded is a “.msi” file (windows installer package), not a self extracting “.exe” zip file.
I don’t know exactly what a ‘windows installer package is or does. I am fearful of clicking on it, because it came from an unknown source on the internet.

Thanks Brian! I’ve been missing this game ever since my Windows XP machine went dead seven months ago. Now I have it again and it works just as well on Windows 7. The only downsides I notice so far are that there is a ten second delay switching to full screen mode (which really should be the default for a PC) and dates are absent from the high scores list. This game is a true classic, so much fun and so popular, it deserves to be upgraded and included in future editions of Windows. Thanks again for sharing this information with us!

nothing came up when i tried to download it… weird

Hi Ben – Which link did you click? Be sure you don’t have some sort of blocker enabled. Here it is again: https://www.groovypost.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/3d_pinball_for_windows_space_cadet.exe

Let me know, will try to help ya download it.

Hi, I downloaded it and the flippers won’t flip. Everything else is fine though.

Thanks for this. I’ve downloaded and run it on Windows 10. I had to go to the options and change the flipper keys to get them to work but now I can challenge my grandson to my hearts content.

THANKS SO MUCH!! ive been missing this game.

I actually copied it off of my dad’s windows xp computer before he got rid of it since I knew from my laptop that the game was not in windows 7. I have all the files in a folder on my flash drive and I plug it into the computers at school and play it from that. I even uploaded all the files to google drive just in case I ever lose the flash drive. Pinball is backed up more places than my photos.

Hey, thanks a lot, Brian! I installed this on my current system, which is running Windows 7 Pro, and it works great! The music, the sound effects, everything is awesome! Brings back some good memories of the good old glory days with Windows XP.

This was one of the games that I really missed playing. I even resurrected my old Dell Dimension desktop today (model 2350) just to see if it would fire up but the hard drive on it is failing and it although it ran well everywhere else, it wouldn’t load the game properly (keep in mind that 3D Pinball was pre-installed with XP, too). 🙁 Oh well, I’ll be recycling it in a few days anyway.

But again, my current system ran this game with no problem at all! Thanks again!

You’re welcome John. BTW, I just installed it on Windows 10 and it works just fine on the new OS as well.

a lot of thanks , Brian

Works great for me on both Windows 8.1 for my laptop and Windows 10 for my desktop. Only problem is that the Help feature, the first topic in the drop-down list does nothing, and on Windows 10 I get a warning that my native resolution is not supported in full screen.

The help file isn’t working, I have no idea how we would get it…

Set the resolution to a smaller setting and it will go to full screen.

I adjusted to a Lower Screen Resolution and that did NOT solve the Issue of The Game going to Full Screen Mode. The Black Background goes Full Screen, BUT the actual Playing Field does Not.

hi. this game doesnt have music.even I turn on the music,there are no music. just sound effect. anybody know how to include music? I only can download the sepearated music files from internet,then play it on windows media player while I play pinball. this is bit annoying

Thanks again for the Space Cadet Pinball Download link! I do have a question though. If anyone has a problem with the game, from what I understand, there is no way to uninstall it. Right-Clicking and selecting uninstall just goes to Add/Remove programs and the game is not on the list. (Both Windows 8.1 and 10) I don’t have Windows 7 anymore to test.

I realize that it would be unlikely that people would need to uninstall such a great game! But would like the steps just for reference.

Game works fine but my high scores don’t save. Whenever I exit out of game and come back, my high scores are gone. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks. I was looking for this executable! Works fantastic in Fedora 23 (64-bit) with WINE.

Awesome to know. Thnx for testing and posting success in the comments!

Yeah. I admit, I’ve played Pinball a few times before, and I missed having it on Windows 7. Thanks dude!

Wish there was a way to get it via Chrome OS. So miss that game… 🙁

Help. the pinball itself sort of vibrates during the game.

Um – not sure what that means?

WhooHoo. Thought I would never get to play this game again on a newer Windows OS! Works great on Windows 7 Pro. It has been many years since I have played this game.

I was always amazed at how great the action is compared to a real pinball machine on this game. Thanks a bunch! If I had the room I would build a pinball stand. install a LCD tv in it. then add the glass over it. attach a wireless keyboard on top at the lower end of the stand of course. VGA the computer to the LCD tv and it would almost be like having the real thing! How cool would that be? Poor mans set up but, would look good once finished. Thanks again!

When I try to play the game in “full screen”, the only thing that happens is that the F3 button opens my volume control.

Thank you! Worked great on W7.

I really love this game soooooo much fun. I too used to play this game all the time until i stopped playing it for some reason and now I plan on getting a windows ten computer dell and install it so i can play it almost all the time great game though love it. Also I really like when the ball gets stuck in the worm hole and keeps going in there sooo coool.

Yeah – it’s a great, got 10 minutes to waste kind of game. Always sucks ya in!

I like this old great game, but I also “misused” it for testing my Key Recorder. The recorder can keep down keys for a certain time. Pinball was the perfect test environment for testing this function. Keeping down the space key ejects the ball….
And finally I can test this function again…. Thank you.

Recently I think I agreed to an update for my apple I-Pad iOS. Anyway I’ve lost my Arabian Nights pinball game, which I have had for over a year. No matter wot I’ve tried, I can’t get it back 🙁
Can anyone help? Thanks.

I don’t mean to sound like the village idiot, but how the heck do you start the game?? I click on it in my apps, and xBox opens with a bunch of boxes with titles above them, New, Studios, Marvel Collection, etc. I just want to play pinball!

Unfortunately Windows 8 doesn’t have games anymore so I’m glad I was able to find this (and Windows XP Solitaire as well, another great time-waster from back in the day.)

do did great my brother Thank you very much. child hood game . works 100%. Pinball still one of the best

it is working
thank you…

If need be or there is a problem, does anyone know how to uninstall the game on Windows 8 and 10?

However, performance is sporadic with my game-play ability and has been for years. I only average about 3.5 million and I think have gotten as high as 22 million. My questions are, what makes the game so random? How much is luck, how much is skill and physics? What strategies do you use?

3D Pinball Space Cadet and Hearts were my favorites but, I have moved on to the Windows 10 games with their new algorithms.

*Correction
3D Pinball Space Cadet wasn’t the most popular but, the ones that liked it, really liked it!

i just downloaded Pinball Space Cadet I have Windows 10. There is “music” but no “sound”. Can you please help?

I love this Game!! Thank you so much for this, I will now try this download so I can play on my break at work. Thanks again!

Although I would love to have this Pinball game for this computer (Windows 10), I don’t trust the source where it comes from and feel it to be too risky to download it. An older computer (that seems to be on its last thread and ready to go) has Pinball that came with it. This one does not. I can’t risk having this computer get a virus from an unknown source.

Heya David – I get that. Just know, groovyPost (My blog) has been around since 2007 right here in Seattle WA. Hopefully, that helps ya a bit from a trust standpoint ie: Not a blog outside the country trying to get you to install some Malware. 😉

Question on this game left by a forum member how to start play

1.) Press the Spacebar to move the plunger back. Press again to release if you don’t want a full shot.

2.) The Z and / keys control the left and right flippers. Pressing both obviously movies both flippers

3.) F3 Pauses the current game

4.) F2 Starts a new game

Awesome Jack – Thanks for finding and posting that.

It took me a while and some googling to find out how to work it. I thought that it was just me.

Microsoft assumes that everyone is intuitive.

Pinball 3D Space Cadet 1.0 is a great game, a true classic.

Glad you found us @James in Pittsburgh!

Game appears very small in Windows 10. Anyway to make it play large?

Anyway to get scores to save on windows 10? Love the download btw. Awesome game!

score should be written in registry (was always, since…) also easily editable ^xoxoxo^

– thank you for classic

Help! Windows 10 just updated itself ( October 15th 2016) and now Pinball which was working fine full screen an hour ago won’t go full screen.
Have tried all the compatability modes…just won’t stay full screen for more than half a second.
Thanks Microsoft…uyou’ve just given me another reason to stay with my Ipad for games.

I think I love you … at least a little. The HOURS I wasted playing this. And now I get to do it again! Thanks 🙂

Thanks! Haven’t played this game since I was a kid sitting in front of the family PC with my friends.

Hey. This is really great, but it does not save the highscores. I am on windows 10. Is there a fiz or settings thing that I have to do?

wow thankyou groovypost for providing the best game of my life for free.

i remember this machine, I used to play it in Big Bear, Calif. as a kid, the real machine, not on a computer, wonder if its still out there in a recycle graveyard or some collector has it? this was back in like ’78. being an apple guy, I never used windows, till I used my pops windows xp\vista whatever, on a dell, good fun for killing time.

Got hooked on the real table in The Happidrome amusements Southend, Essex, UK, when I was working there as a student summer job! (Exchanging coins for punters’ bank notes). Now been playing computer versions for years, Arabian Nights & Space Cadet; current top score is 149,000,000 a few years ago – but time has caught up with me (OAP) …… 🙁

Did anyone else get a weird white bar at top after. Not in game buat just in general?

Thanks for this!

Just found a terrible version of this in the Windows store (called Pinball Stars). I was so disappointed I went looking for the original, and lo and behold!

Works great, but is there a way to make the window larger? Activating full screen stretches it to fit my widescreen monitor. Not a dealbreaker, but still …

Space Cadet Pinball is the best digital pinball game. It plays much like a cabinet type. There are a lot of tasks and challenges as well. the ball movement is smooth and does not go too fast or too slow.

Yeah – Installs and works great on Windows 10. A true Windows classic!

Thank you Brian, I just thought of this game today. I have been playing it with my two brothers since primary going to secondary school. I searched and found it here. Thank you for the good work.
