## How to play

Tap anywhere or press Space to earn pops. After seven taps, pause and tap when the candy turns blue to cool it. Hold and slide left for a toy, right for stronger taps, or vertically for frost; release to buy. Keyboard: hold Space to browse, 1/2/3 to buy. Toys earn automatically but add heat; frost makes cooling easier. Unlock Quiet time. Progress is saved.
