type-two b671975742 Vendor SpaceCadetPinball, build for Apple Silicon
Reverse-engineered reimplementation of 3D Pinball for Windows - Space Cadet
from k4zmu2a/SpaceCadetPinball (MIT), upstream cb9b7b8, vendored rather than
submoduled so local patches are just edits.

- CMakeLists: stop hard-setting CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES so the documented -D
  override works; brew's SDL2 is arm64-only and universal linking failed.
- gitignore original .DAT/.MID assets, which are not ours to redistribute.
- CLAUDE.md: build line, upstream deviation, and where game data goes.

# Building
Install devel packages for `SDL2` and `SDL2_mixer`.\
Compile with CMake; tested with GCC 10, Clang 11.\
To cross-compile for Windows, install a 64-bit version of mingw and its `SDL2` and `SDL2_mixer` distributions, then use the `mingwcc.cmake` toolchain.
```bash
# On Debian and Ubuntu
sudo apt install cmake build-essential ninja-build libsdl2-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-mixer-2.0-0 libsdl2-2.0-0 fluidsynth
# On Fedora
sudo dnf install cmake ninja-build SDL2 SDL2-devel SDL2_mixer SDL2_mixer-devel fluidsynth fluidsynth-libs mscore-fonts g++
# Build
cmake -GNinja .
ninja
```
**If you can't hear the background music**: You need to export the following variable before launching the game like this:
`export SDL_SOUNDFONT=/path/to/your/soundfont`
Fluidsynth will install a default soundfont in the following path:
On Fedora: `/usr/share/soundfonts/FluidR3_GM.sf2`
On Ubuntu/Debian: `/usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2`
