Any buttplug.io widget available?

[–] Janx@piefed.social 3 points 1 hour ago

These challenges are supposed to at least be possible!

Unironically the best digital pinball game, it was the right balance between fun and difficult.

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I tried running it again recently. Have they patched out the infinite ricochet loops you can get going? The physics feel a little different

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

The original game was 16 bit and won't run on modern systems. It had to be remade. If you want the real thing you'll need a VM running XP.

There was also a 32-bit version which still works fine on Windows 11.

Or you can play this port on Android

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Damn. Is that why? I thought modern os had compossibility settings for running old stuff. Let me double check where I got this thing

[–] p_consti@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

64-bit machines are not able to run 8-bit and 16-bit code while 64-bit mode is active. You can install a 32-bit OS, where this works, but if you want the advantage of 64 bits, you lose those very old (DOS and pre-DOS) programs.

I think those are always subject to what insane optimizations the dev might have done

I don’t know if it’s un ironic because, at the time (and for a long time), it was the only digital pinball game worth mentioning. All of the others weren’t really very serious. This was the first attempt to really make a serious digital pinball game. And it was fucking amazing. I spent a lot of time playing it.

It might’ve been a year before I could last more than five minutes playing it

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

That’s not true, I got a shareware Pinball game many years before that ran on DOS which had several tables that were all distinct from each other, better graphics, but if I wanted to unlock everything I had to give a complete stranger my credit card number or send a money order to a physical address.

3D Space Cadet Pinball is popular because it was given to every Windows user for free.

Hilariously (Sadly) the full version of the game failed. The one table demo that we all know was immensely more successful.

This was my grandma and grandmas favorite game, they were gamers in their 60's, and I have so many memories of them playing it

Dammit, beat me to it.

Here's the android version, at any rate.

OK that's pretty cool. I wonder what would have to be done to get the original space cadet (with Multiball, among others) up and working like that. If I had the time, I'd look a little closer at the project, seems pretty interesting.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 3 hours ago

I have the mobile port

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

I do not last 5 minutes playing that game, cumming or not!

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

I still have the loud ball loading sound in my ear.
