60 Second Shootout

A one-minute target game built around a single mechanic: pull the water balloon back into the launch area, release, and watch it fly. Points come from getting the shot past the spiked paddle guarding the scoring zone, which turns every throw into a choice between a safe arc and a greedy one. The whole round lasts sixty seconds, so there is no learning curve to speak of — you either read the paddle's rhythm or you do not. A shootout built for one sitting, and honest about it.
