Download Cracker Jack Field Goal 1

Thanks to Bob & destruk for the football images, and destruck for his coding help.


Cracker Jack, which has been sold for over a century, gained popularity by adding cheap little wooden & plastic toys in each box they sold. While they offered little booklets too, the pinball toys were the big favorite of boys, including me. Cracker Jack now has many varieties to choose from, back in the 1950s it only came in their original version, in small cardboard boxes.

Field Goal is a skill game, rather than a pin toy, but I've made a few changes and added some sounds to convert it into a nice little diversion. You get 10 footballs to determine if you're good enough to be the Cracker Jack's new field goal kicker. Now be warned that the team plays on a field where winds can pop up from any direction. Fans have been invited to watch the try out and while they'll cheer wildly if you're good, they'll boo you just as much when you miss. The coach is a bit tired from all these try outs, so you might have to wake him up.
