🎨 Inspiration

Time is always running — and sometimes it feels like it’s running us. I wanted to flip that idea and create something simple that turns time into play. Color Rush was born: a 30‑second focus challenge that melts stress and sparks joy.

🎯 What it does

You’ve got 30 seconds. A target color flashes on screen. Find it. Click it. Repeat. ✅ Score climbs with every correct click. ✅ Leaderboard tracks your wins. ✅ You leave feeling lighter, focused, and refreshed

🛠️ How I built it

• Pure HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — no frameworks, no installs.
• LocalStorage handles leaderboard and personal best.
• Fun UI tweaks: color pop animations, clean design, smooth hover effects — all lightweight.

⚡ Challenges I ran into

• Making the game feel modern and polished without heavy libraries.
• Keeping code ultra‑light so it runs by just opening an HTML file.
• Getting leaderboard storage & score summaries to work seamlessly across pages.

🏆 Accomplishments that I proud of

• Built a game that’s fun, stress‑busting, and instantly playable.
• Created a clean, responsive UI with just CSS magic.
• Made it hackathon‑friendly — no installs, no setup, just pure click‑and‑play.

📚 What I learned

• UX matters — tiny touches like “personal best” & animations make a huge difference.
• Time pressure in games is powerful — it engages players instantly.
• How to balance simplicity and creativity for hackathon projects.
