Build an Arcade Pinball Table

A code-along course that builds a complete 3D pinball table step by step, using the real, tested BabylonJS Market components. You start with an empty playfield and add walls, a camera that frames the table, a plunger that launches the ball, flippers you actually control, and bumpers, spinners and saucers that score — until you have a working web game.

What We Will Cover

  • Assemble a real 3D pinball table one component at a time
  • Every component code block is a verbatim slice of live, tested source
  • Havok physics, swept flipper colliders, ball lifecycle, and three scoring elements
  • Ends in a working web game whose scene equals the library's

This code-along builds a complete 3D pinball table from the real, tested @babylonjsmarket components. You start with a bare playfield — a lit slab, a skybox, and a camera — then make one component the single source of truth for the table's dimensions and watch everything else lay itself out from that: walls and rails, a camera that fits the table in frame, a plunger that owns the ball's whole life from spawn to drain. Then you add the parts that make it a game: flippers whose colliders are inflated against tunnelling so a fast ball can't pass through the bat, bumpers that ping the ball away and pay out points, spinners that count rotations, and saucers that capture the ball and spit it back. Each part is a separate ECS component that talks to the others over the EventBus and never reaches into another. Every component code block is a verbatim slice of live @babylonjsmarket source, and the scene you assemble ends equal to the library's own PinballTable scene.
