Pushbutton game

Hi everybody, I'am a newbie with my first Arduino project. I want to make a 2 player game, where the player who fastest can activate a pushbutton 30 times is the Winner. There should also be 6 LED's to indicate the Progress for each player. The Winner will be saluted with a blinking LED effect, Any suggestion/guidance on how to do this.. Best regards

Yes start off by designing and building the hardware.

Then write some code to test that the hardware works.

Then write some code to count just one button press and extend it to two.

Take small steps and if you get stuck ask specifically what is troubling you.

Have fun, make achievements.

Good luck.
