Scratch - Pling Plong

 I have built a game called "Pling Plong". It is based on the "Pong" game which was one of the first ever computer games.

One player takes the red racket and another the blue one. The red player uses "q" and "a" in the keyboard and the green player uses the "up" and "down" arrows. You can access the game here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/620944185 Enjoy!

It's not strapped so that we can see when there is no gravity. If you want to interact with the mission you can get a boarding pass like the one below and you can get your name on a memory stick that will be in the capsule that will go around the Moon. Y...
