Hits in a row

What we are doing

Rhythm games reward streaks. The combo counts hits in a row and goes back to zero on a miss.

```js
let combo

  combo = 0

  closest.hit = true
  combo += 1

      judged.miss += 1
      combo = 0
```

What it means

• combo starts at 0, grows by one with every hit and goes back to 0 on a miss.

Your turn

1. Under let score write let combo; in reset, under score = 0, write combo = 0.
2. In press, under closest.hit = true, write combo += 1.
3. In update, in the miss loop, under judged.miss += 1, write combo = 0.
