3D Pinball: Space Cadet

Story

At the Space Cadet table, the player is a member of a space fleet that completes missions to increase their rank. Players can achieve 9 different ranks (from lowest to highest): Cadet, Ensign, Lieutenant, Captain, Lieutenant Commander, Commander, Commodore, Admiral and Fleet Admiral. Players accept a mission by meeting "mission objectives" that select which mission they will accept and by walking up the "launch ramp". In each mission, players must complete a certain number of tasks, such as hitting the "Attack Bumpers" (four bumpers on top of the table) eight times (this is the "Target Practice" mission). Some missions involve a series of steps that must be completed in sequence. Missions end either by being completed, or by being aborted because the "fuel" runs out. The "fuel" lights go out one at a time at a set time interval, and can be relit by flying the ball over them, or all at once by going back up the launch ramp. After completing a mission, some of the blue lights will light up in a circle in the center of the table. When all the lights in the blue circle light up, the player's rank increases and a light in the orange circle lights up.
