CandleCrash Update: Now live in r/candlecrash

Shipped a major polish pass and moved from dev to production subreddit.

What’s new

• Game-first layout: chart and choices are now the focus.
• Faster reveal flow: tap → commit → inline result in ~300ms.
• Premium motion (CSS-only): button press feedback, result banner entrance, correct/wrong emphasis.
• Result-first revisit UX: if you already played today, we immediately show your locked result.
• Dynamic splash state:
  • Start Today’s Challenge for new attempts
  • View Today’s Result if already played
• Leaderboard visibility after attempt.
• Share flow moved into a cleaner bottom sheet.
• Dark mode pass with better text contrast.
• Chart framing fixes to remove letterboxing and improve readability.

Platform/ops updates

• Daily refresh supports fresh market-close data with fallback.
• Scheduler + moderator refresh action both wired.
• Repo is now public: github.com/vinayanand3/candlecrash
