The challenge of playing a 1-minute bullet game is two fold: playing decent moves while also moving quickly.
Wolfpak1051 has played some interesting - and fast - Jerome Gambits (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+) at lichess.org.
The following game looks, at first glance, like his opponent has kept up positionally, and in fact may actually be better.
However, Black's resignation was most likely a reflection that he has not kept up on the clock, and that his flag was soon to fall.
Resignation or loss on time, it still counts as 1 - 0.

This standard Jerome Gambit position shows up in about 460 games in The Database. Activity on the e-file and the action of White's d- and f-pawns are significant parts of upcoming play.
10.Nc3 Qe7 11.O-O b6 12.d4 Bb7 13.f3 Kf7
Black is pressuring White's reinforced center. Now he plans to castle-by-hand.
14.Qg5 Rhe8 15.Qg3 Kg8 16.Bg5 Black resigned
There is plenty of play left in the position, so most likely it was a time issue for Black.
Dude that’s my dad😂
