SpaceCadetPinball is a free, open-source reconstruction of the classic 3D Pinball for Windows: Space Cadet game. It restores the original game's functionality through reverse-engineered C++ source code based on the Windows XP release. The project preserves the familiar pinball table, gameplay mechanics, missions, scoring system, and sound effects. It replaces the original platform-dependent implementation with SDL2-based components for modern operating systems. Users can play in resizable windows with scaled graphics and support for high-resolution game assets. The project runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with additional community ports for gaming consoles and other devices. Original game resource files are required because they are not included in the repository.
