Thank you so much for the incredibly kind words and for spending so much time with the game! This really made my day.
A score of 35 (!) is genuinely impressive. Even I cannot reach that myself. Huge congratulations. I spent quite a bit of time on the visuals, so I am really glad to hear that they worked out well.
I also noticed on the leaderboard that this score was achieved while logged in, since the record was set using a custom username. If the score remains in the top 100 through the end of this month (which it almost certainly will), it will be permanently recorded in your Profile page's Placement History. It is a small but lasting recognition of the achievement if you come back to the game next month.
