- Added visible keyboard instructions "Controls: Space / Up Arrow" - Separated the static text "Score:" from the dynamically updating score value. - Wrapped dynamic score inside a span with aria-live="polite" and aria-atomic="true" so screen readers don't unnecessarily repeat "Score". - Logged learning about aria-live into .Jules/palette.md Co-authored-by: EiJackGH <172181576+EiJackGH@users.noreply.github.com>

💡 What: Added visible controls instructions to the top right of the Mario game view and improved screen reader accessibility for the score counter.
🎯 Why: Users need to know how to interact with the game. Moreover, screen reader users were previously subjected to hearing "Score:" read out entirely every time the score number incremented. Separating the static label from the dynamic number inside the
aria-liveregion creates a significantly better audio UX.♿ Accessibility: Added
aria-live="polite"andaria-atomic="true"to just the score number value span, improving dynamic content announcements. Added a journal entry to.Jules/palette.mdto reflect this learning.PR created automatically by Jules for task 11859134662329315405 started by @EiJackGH
