I just want to take a moment real quick to highlight that you wrote out the phrase “Ronald Reagan ball skins.”
- FREE! rootkit with every install
- Progression system with skill trees for paddles, launcher, and tilt
- Level-locked missions
- 150% XP Time SaverTM sold separately. Eat my ass, Ubisoft!
- Daily login rewards with bonus for no days missed
- Pay to have loot boxes dropped onto the table (you have to hit them to unlock, so it’s totally not gambling!)
- Visual downgrade controversy, for some reason
Are we going to have a community that is focused on gaming discussion and another focused on memes and low-effort posts? Or are they going to be combined?
idk about you but this is a valid question that could be discussed if you werent so full of yourself

Agreed because I don’t like the OP for being a low effort meme, but also I feel like if there’s a community you’re interested in, just go make it.
Especially as people migrate off of Reddit and Lemmy grows. Anyone coming from Reddit who was interested in games knows there is a demand for a discussion/news based community like r/games
Honestly, a community like /r/games without the power mod approach to what articles can be posted would be really nice.
It’s definitely a valid question though, because Lemmy is going to be just as vulnerable as reddit to the problem of how much quicker low-effort memes accrue upvotes, which naturally results in them drowning out articles and discussion posts. The latter, despite being more interesting and generally “higher-quality”, will always take more time per-user to engage with - so, in systems like this, they naturally fall behind in both pace and volume of upvote.
For anyone on Android, you can get the game here
There is also an open source version you can get on Github for android https://github.com/fexed/Pinball-on-Android
… and that was the end of my productivity for the day.
What is there to remaster?
I’ll let Dave explain: https://youtu.be/ThxdvEajK8g
And here’s the blog from the other guy - https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20121218-00/?p=5803
Hey, Dave!
If only I could be as cool as that Dave.
Best comment here, please remember to boost this post so people can see it!
Twas remastered in 2021 in the Microsoft Store my dude. Have fun
I just tried it, and wow, that is really bad actually. Genuinely much worse than finding a download of the original version.
Do you happen to know where I could find an original download?
You can always go check out Dave’s garage on YouTube hes got a nice video on it and links to aquire it
Looks like that one is from 2013 and last updated in 2015, so what happened to 2021?
It would be soo cool if they open-sourced this game at this point.
… like why not?
Well lucky for you someone has already done the work! SpaceCadetPinball
Honestly I’m bored enough to open Unity and get to work, but someone’s probably already got a project on GitHub.
How about a web version?

Wow, right in the nostalgia.
Isn’t there already a remaster? I came around this one from the KDE discovery.
It’s not really a remaster, it’s an open-source re-implementation. But I guess it could be used as a base for a remaster
Who needs a remaster? This is perfect.
Speaking of windows 95, any nostalgia communities yet?
Make one, I’ll sub.
They made a remake for Windows store a while ago, and it was awful
I did play the hell out of this game back in the day, but there was an even older one that only worked in dos mode. I can’t remember the name, but I loved that version.
I’m pretty sure I still have that on a 3.5" floppy somewhere. I also have a 3.5" drive that could read it, but I have nothing I could plug it into.
Will it have paid day-one DLC? Online leaderboards and rankings? NFTs? Requires constant online connectivity? Battlepass with flipper cosmetics?
Like the crap they slapped onto solitaire? That was ridiculous.
Tell me your joking
Nope. It’s now bloated with ads and “premium” features…nothing is sacred.
