The end message

What we are doing

When the game ends, a dark box in the middle says whether you cleared the board or the bubbles reached you.

```js
if (state !== 'playing') {
  ctx.fillStyle = 'rgba(15, 23, 42, 0.85)'
  ctx.fillRect(40, 200, canvas.width - 80, 90)
  ctx.fillStyle = 'white'
  ctx.textAlign = 'center'
  ctx.font = 'bold 24px sans-serif'
  ctx.fillText(state === 'won' ? 'Board cleared!' : 'The bubbles reached you', canvas.width / 2, 238)
  ctx.font = '16px sans-serif'
  ctx.fillText('Space or tap to play again', canvas.width / 2, 268)
}
```
