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
What is there to remaster?
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
🥇
Yeah, as long as we’re using an upvote system, those need to be split so the articles and discussion posts don’t get drowned out in a sea of easily-consumed and quickly-upvoted low-content posts. I know I would personally really prefer having a proper feedly-style community with a bunch of articles and discussions than another gaming meme one that could basically be a bot linked to an instagram feed.
so, god knows there’s enough games communities across the various larger instances right now but, even so… maybe we should start a /c/gamingdiscussion?
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.
ah yes the gaming v games debate continues on a new platform, very interesting
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.
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.
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.
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!
You can find several ports of pinball on GitHub. https://github.com/fexed/Pinball-on-Android is the android version I like to use.
Wow, right in the nostalgia.
Speaking of windows 95, any nostalgia communities yet?
Make one, I’ll sub.
How about a web version?
Careful what you wish for. 2024 EA announces remaster of Zen Pinball.

No need to remaster perfection
Fuck yeah this shit slapped! I remember going to my grandma’s in like 2001 and playing that with my cousins. And others like solitaire
