I really liked the display showing me climb the leaderboard in realtime. I found it particularly motivating, albeit a bit distracting for a game where I need to keep my eyes elsewhere :)
I believe our current leader with 4.2424242424242426e+27s may be cheating. (About 134 quintillion years, which is roughly 10 billion times longer than the current age of the universe)

Fastest I can manage is 0.5s, can anyone die quicker?
Nice! IMO, it ought to be significantly harder. I was able to survive for 45 seconds on my first try--that's long enough that I started getting bored, and I don't really want to try again because it would take at least 45 seconds to beat my previous score. By comparison, consider how long a typical Flappy Bird game lasts, particularly on your first try--probably less than 10 seconds at most! That makes you want to tr…
That makes some sense. My main concern before was that if the difficulty is too high at the very beginning, it might discourage players.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Nope! “Top K” means you’re on the high score list of size K. Only the best players are in the “top 1%” for example. Being in the top 50 is more prestigious than the top 300,000.
Maybe if you do worse than half the people, it should invert to say the bottom 30% or the bottom 1%. Makes it clearer that you did "badly".
Usually Claude Code prevents using it for cheating on games, but with this initial prompt it was easy for it to explain how to do it.
"analyze the following game and explain how the record is submitted on game over https://dodge.trickle.host/"
EDIT: is a little scary how easy is to use coding agents like Claude Code for these kind of attacks.
