freezy/VisualPinball.Engine ★ 510 73 APPLICATION

VisualPinball.Engine is a comprehensive pinball simulation engine and Unity package for authoring and playing virtual pinball tables. It provides a complete pipeline for importing Visual Pinball (.vpx) files, generating 3D meshes and physics colliders for every playfield element (bumpers, flippers, ramps, rubbers, targets, etc.), and running a Burst-compiled physics simulation with collision detection, flipper mechanics, nudge, and game logic wiring (switches, coils, lamps). The codebase is structured as a Unity package with extensive editor tooling (inspectors, manager windows, asset browser, packaging system) and a runtime player. It is not a standalone application but a library/framework that integrates deeply with Unity's editor and runtime. The architecture is modular, with clear separation of concerns: data classes with BiffAttribute-based binary serialization, mesh generators, collider generators, API interfaces for game logic, and a packaging system for distributing tables as .vpe files. The code demonstrates high craftsmanship in physics simulation, mesh tessellation, and binary format handling, though some legacy components and editor coupling exist.
