Have you considered any alternate control schemes?  I just lost a 77 streak because the buttons decided that I briefly released my hold, I guess...

If I could offer a suggestion: it could be something like, holding A and pressing a direction shifts the row/column in that direction, and holding B and pressing a direction shifts the colors?  (I know it still involves holding, but it's in such a way that if the button releases, nothing happens, rather than it committing an action.)

Oof, thats a bummer. Awesome streak though! I don't know if this will help in your situation, but if you press down on the d-pad while long pressing to color shift, it will cancel the action. Just an FYI.

The long press to color shift actually is an alternate control scheme. It was added v1.1.0 to address fidgety crank behavior - you used to only be able to color shift with the crank.

I'll give your suggestion some thought! Thanks again for all of the feedback, I really appreciate it.

I know about down to cancel; that wouldn't have helped here -- I was holding on purpose, but the playdate dropped an input or something, and treated it like a press instead.
