Thank you so much, this was so thoughtful! I love the fishing bobber idea, I am unashamedly yoinking that and throwing it on my sticky note :P. You're definitely right on both counts, I want to revisit how I lay out the minigame instructions - I originally had it be a bit more verbose ("Count the pins that were hit!") but I couldn't come up with a great way to express it without making it a jumble of words the player has to parse quickly before jumping in. Definitely something I gotta take another look at. The button timer being too tight was also something most commenters agreed on, and was something I thought about during development but just kinda... pushed it off for future me to solve... whoops! Thanks for playing :D
