Button lights shouldn't turn off or reset?

Pretty quickly it feels like a chore to turn on so many buttons over and
over again. I'd say once you turn on the initial 7, your main actions
should be turning buttons off. I think if everything blinks or something
whenever you complete a 'level' that should be sufficient enough of a clue.

I think it would be possible to do this if the hint UI stays on always and no longer needs activation. You still need to press the middle button to submit your answer but with the hints always on the player will always see how he is affecting the puzzle without having to go through the hassle or always pressing the verify answer button.

So we would have it "submit" on every button press, and when they enter the correct pattern it automatically submits? We would have to have the hints and progress tracking follow them around. In true mastermind fashion you would have to hit that button to ask "is this correct?"

I still like that the user is staring at the hint and progress meter by default when they hit the button.

Yeah I wouldn't change that part.
