Simple little racing game as a tutorial

Don’t know if folks saw this on Make (not very complex, but a nice starter project). It would be a good project with the kids, and then think of mods to the design.

Looks like a more complex version of a plonko game that’s on my to-do list.

There is also the double peg version where the clown or figure “rocks” back and forth as it descends .
Could be made into side by side racing version
