Welcome, I’m assuming you’re asking a question about a video game and so I moved this from **Cecil’s** to **The Game Room**. ---

Space Cadet is a 3-D pinball game that came with Windows 2000 and XP (and ME maybe?). Space Cadet wasn’t included in later versions of windows due to bugs. Your time warp bug is one of those. If you can find it, there is a 2005 version of Space Cadet that is supposedly not as buggy. I haven’t played it myself though so I have no idea if that is really true or not. ---

You could try this version of the game, which has been ported to the browser: [https://alula.github.io/SpaceCadetPinball/](https://alula.github.io/SpaceCadetPinball/) I’d be curious to know if the bug you’re referring to persists in this version.
