Not sure I get the Highscore part. If the longest time is the highscore, you can wait as you want and get a highscore easily? At some point I tried to speedrun the game the other way around, and went down to 4seconds, that was slightly more interesting. You could have a constant decrease in health maybe instead, and focus on a highscore about maximum gold.

Yeah, I kept changing what the highscore was supposed to be since I felt the game was too easy and I just couldn't put my finger on what to do about it,  and then  I ran out of time. I like the idea of the constant decrease though! I think that would have made it more challenging.
