Research direction

Start at the app-logo entry point for the hidden game and reproduce the flickering after scrolling the prompt out of view and jumping across platforms. Trace the background-rock rendering path on Linux Wayland, then verify that the rocks remain stable in the same sequence and that the hidden game still renders normally.
