So yeah, just to echo what has been said before and elaborate a bit, the reaction time the opponent has is just absurd and basically makes the game unwinnable. 0.03-0.04s would be reasonable if it were simply about clicking anywhere on a signal, but the fact that you have to identify an object somewhere on the playing field, then move your mouse to it and click it-making sure not to overshoot-adds a lot to the reaction time. And that's not even getting into the fact that there's multiple colors of crabs (I have never managed to win a single round, let alone get that far that those show up).
Personally, I would build a new version of the game that maybe errs more on the side of being too lenient than being too strict so people can at least play the game and enjoy the art. For what it's worth, my average time is somewhere between 0.07s and 0.1s, and even when the crab literally spawned under my cursor, I only got a 0.05 and lost to the opponent's 0.04s.
Maybe have a larger range-something like 0.07-0.2s. That could allow for some wins and some losses.
Hey, Themcd! This is what I call a review! Don't worry, there will be a new version of the game with the new characters of the season. The opponent's difficulty is already on the top of the list!
Hey, Kingpi731! Thank you for playing. Catching these crabs are little harder than expected. If you don't mind sharing your catching average it would help for the difficulty tweak.

Literally impossible not even my auto clicker is fast enough anytime I beat what they got last time its just gets lower and lower.
Hello, bot57894! Wasn't my intention to make the game this hard. I'll work on it!
impossible to win
Hey, Rex5k! Sorry for the experience. I'll try to make it "beatable"!
A Reasonable-CPU-Opponent should never react faster than 0.3s and they should rarely, if ever, react slower than 1.2s.
350ms (Elite) - 1,000ms (Casual) Range would be the most encompassing.
The decimal seems to be in the incorrect location on this game.
For example, the game’s reported 0.04 time should actually be 0.4.
A tie counts as a win for the CPU and the CPU just clicked a crab in 270ms - which is absurd for Complex-Reactions.
The CPU just 0-5’d me during a match where I had an average in-game response of “0.036.” and a Peak of “0.028”
Hey, Loving! Thank you for the comment, it is very detailed! I'll surely take note of this and implement the code.
Thank you; best of luck.

Ya, the enemies clicked the crab in 0.036 seconds

mine was anywhere between 0.1-0.3 seconds usually
they get it way to damn fast
Hey Mikenharles! Glad you commented, now I can work on the difficulty. Feel free to share any other issues you got.
