Mini-Game Mechanics

Ring Components:

• Green Section Percentage: Size of the success zone (larger = easier)
• Critical Section Percentage: Size of the bonus zone (provides better rewards)
• Green Section Max Position Offset: How far the green section can move (higher = harder)
• Bobber Speed: How fast the bobber moves (higher = harder)

Difficulty Progression:

• Easy: Fewer rings, larger green sections, slower speed
• Medium: More rings, smaller green sections, moderate speed
• Hard: Most rings, smallest green sections, fastest speed
