Summary  
This chapter covers implementing state management and event-driven logic by tracking and updating scores and lives, using a timer and conditional checks to trigger a game-over pop-up when certain criteria are met.

General domain of usage  
Game development

Catching supplies is fun, but it gets even better when items have different roles. Let's add points, lives, and a cheerful game over screen to make the challenge feel more realistic.

The falling items won't all behave the same. Some will be **good**, some **bad**, and one especially **rare and valuable**.

Here's what you will add:

**Game over pop-up**
- Triggers when lives reach 0 or after a short timer (30s) runs out;
- Shows the final score;
- Has two buttons: "Play Again" and "Back Home".

Which of the following statements accurately describe the roles of the falling items and the game over conditions in the game?
