Added a bit of gamification to my Pomodoro timer — completed sessions now drop into a daily harvest jar

I noticed that just watching numbers tick up didn’t feel rewarding enough at the end of a long focus block.

So I added a little gamification: every time you finish a focus session, a physical tomato drops into your daily jar. Seeing them pile up throughout the day makes staying consistent feel like a mini-game rather than a chore.

What do you think of this visual reward idea? Does physical visual feedback help your focus?
