Description

Just jotting down some ideas for ways the main Ruffle logo animation on the front page could be improved IMHO.

I think if either the Ruffle application (.wasm from CDN) or the logo SWF took too long, or completely failed, to download; or if there was a panic, the canvas could be replaced entirely with an animated GIF or (perhaps better) a static image of the logo.

And as for the logo SWF itself, after all the letters were completely consumed by a couple clicks, perhaps the float-in animation could start again after a short while, not just on the next click, so it doesn't stay empty indefinitely.

Research direction

Start at the front-page main logo animation and trace the CDN .wasm and logo SWF loading path. Review how canvas loading failures, delays, or panics are currently handled, and where the post-click animation is triggered. The issue does not define which fallback asset or replay behavior should be accepted, so those requirements need clarification before implementation.
