It looks like there is some error with the 'smiley' material on the
ball. Edit the file test.dpy and change line 43 from:

dance.geometry("sphere", "material", "Smile2")

to

dance.geometry("sphere", "material", "Candy")

I'm not sure why the smile material is causing a problem.

You should also click on the Gravity UI and apply gravity to the
second skeleton.
