Simple but extremely effective, its surprising how hard it is to find the number 32. Well done.

Nice take on the theme! interaction is smooth, and it's definitely frustrating in a fun way! It was tough to lower my previous best.

This is as fun as it is frustrating.
I love it

Fantastic! Was a lot of fun and I really liked the way the pacing of the game worked, getting a little easier with each number you found - made it feel like you were really going somewhere fast. The music fit perfectly, the UX was great, and the leaderboard fit perfectly though I'm having a tough time breaking in!

This is a great game, nicely polished and has high replayability.  I think the replayability is really boosted by the leaderboard.  I also have the current high score, 34.58!

I ❤️ the music and I ❤️ it more knowing that you created it yourself.

One minor thought is to consider if guessing wrong should give the user a time penalty.  Like 1 or 2 seconds.

Thanks for playing and for the kind words!

As for adding a time penalty, I completely agree! If nothing else, it would help penalize any player that tries to cheat the system by just mashing on random buttons as fast as possible. It's something that I though about early on during development, then it completely dropped off my radar ;)
