🎨 Palette: High Score & Countdown UX Improvements#53
Conversation
- Added High Score persistence using `highscore.txt`. - Implemented a "Press any key to start" prompt and an animated 3-2-1 countdown. - Consolidated redundant UI output in the game loop. - Added input buffer flushing after the countdown for a fair start. - Updated `.gitignore` to exclude the high score file.

💡 What: This PR introduces high score persistence and a pre-game countdown to the Speed Clicker game.
🎯 Why: Previously, the game started abruptly, and scores were lost upon exit. These changes provide a better sense of progression and give the player a moment to prepare.
♿ Accessibility: Improved keyboard interaction by ensuring the game starts only when the user is ready and providing clear visual cues during the countdown.
📸 Before/After:
Before: Game starts immediately with "Score: 0".
After: "Press any key to start..." -> "Starting in 3... 2... 1... GO!" -> "Score: 0 | High: 100".
