How Toon Tone scoring works

Toon Tone turns your HSB slider guess into a hex color, compares it with the target shade using perceptual Delta E distance, then maps that distance to a 0-100 round score.

Why HSB sliders

Hue, saturation, and brightness match how people talk about color. You can decide whether a remembered toon color is warmer, more muted, or darker without thinking in RGB math.

Why Delta E

Delta E measures how different two colors look to human vision. A small visual miss can score well, while an obvious color-family miss drops quickly.

Why the API recalculates scores

Leaderboard saves send only the seed and HSB guesses. The server rebuilds the challenge and recalculates every score before storing the entry.
