That pinball game on windows xp
https://github.com/k4zmu2a/SpaceCadetPinball
Them as likes this should also check out Maxis Full Tilt Pinball and its sequel, Full Tilt Pinball 2.
These are the actual commercial games with the engine upon which Space Cadet was based.
I read somewhere that back then Microsoft was looking to buy some game to include on windows and everybody was showing then games that are more "videogame-ish", with some level of violence or stuff like that, which Microsoft didn't want. Eventually some guy at Microsoft had just rejected another game and said something like: "can't someone just create a pinball game or something?" and someone overheard and created what we now know as Space Cadet Pinball.
How many levels did you get in it?
