WDC 3.0 Let's build the classic game "Simon"

Here’s my submission for this WDC! Had made a basic version of this earlier, but it was pretty buggy. Fixed it up for this WDC, gave it some semblance of UI, and gave it added functionality. Here’s my SIMON: 290 blocks and 2 screens’ worth of wayyy too much struggle.

Features:
Quit Game/ Play again and Reset features
Sound on/off
Sequence length display
Encouragements
Flash animation clone upon clicking a button
Beeps corresponding to each color
Memory Quality checks (only for fun, i.e Goldfish or Excellent)

What I hope to add:
Extra colors for difficulty levels
Compete with other players using Firebase and/or Airtable
Leaderboard
Settings feature with previous games, high score, and customization features (choice of block colours, choice of sounds, choice of default difficulty level/ number of blocks)

Please ignore all the other random screens cluttered throughout this app’s code: this app is more or less the guinea pig for all my failures and experiments! The other screens will not be visible during gameplay and will not affect it whatsoever.

So glad to be back doing a WDC- it’s been quite a while. Do let me know if you have any suggestions for features I could add or if there are any bugs that you spot.

Thank you @domhnallohanlon for all the incredible prompts.

Happy Thunking!
