Click Sprint

The basics

Pick a length and an input first: 1, 5, 10 or 60 seconds, and left click, right click or the spacebar. Press the pad once to start and keep pressing until the bar empties; the pad is the whole play area, so presses outside it neither count nor stop the run. Everything comes from the timestamps of your presses. Clicks per second divides the counted presses by the full window; the one-second burst is the busiest 1000 ms inside the run; pace is the reciprocal in milliseconds; spread is the standard deviation of the gaps, so a steady five clicks a second reads differently from five quick clicks then a pause. Two presses less than 12 ms apart cannot come from a hand on a physical button, so the second one is dropped and the result says how many were dropped: that is the only filtering the page does, and it is why an autoclicker cannot post an impossible score. The pace band (Steady, Brisk, Fast, Very fast, Blazing) is a label for your own number — the page has measured no other players, so it shows no percentile and no average player. Your best per length and input, your last eight runs and your click total stay in this browser only. Changing the length or the input during a run is disabled, so every run is one clean measurement. Add ?duration=5&button=space to the URL to open a pinned mode.

Objective:

Measure how fast you can click on this device. The first press starts the clock and counts; the run lasts exactly the length you pick — 1, 5, 10 or 60 seconds — and stops by itself, so the score is clicks per second over the whole window and a short run is never counted as faster. Next to the average you get your best one-second burst, milliseconds per click and the spread of the gaps between presses. The number to beat is your own best on this device, per length and per input.

Controls:

Press the pad with the selected input: left click, right click or the spacebar. Right click works because the page suppresses the context menu on the pad; in the spacebar mode held-key repeats are ignored, so one press is one click. With the pad focused, Enter or Space counts as a press in any mode. The chips pick 1 s / 5 s / 10 s / 60 s and left / right / space, and they are disabled while a run is in progress. Buttons: Go again returns to the ready state, Sound toggles the synthesised blip, Rules opens the explainer and Reset bests clears this browser's records. Every chip is at least 20 px tall on the 348x261 phone stage and every button at least 22 px, and the pad stays at least 200x90 px; on the 894x670 desktop stage the pad is at least 600x380 px.
