I'm not a fan of this feature, or any others that make the game easier. The level of difficulty is right where I want to be at the moment. I'll leave this open for a while for other people to share their opinions, and give people a chance to change my mind.

That's a fair point about not wanting to make it easier. I can see how this is providing more information than they had access to before, if the game doesn't show a new distance for a guess that is further away than the best guess so far.

As an improvement, I want to amend this to only show the distance for one previous guess when it is clicked on. That will keep the UI a lot cleaner, because I don't like how this looks right now. Even better would be if I can make this into an option rather than a default. I'll make those changes if I get some time soon.

I had another thought that this additional information could be shown after the game ends, either by clicking on the individual guesses to get the distance, or all distances in the list

Was a proof of concept/experiment
