04 / embedded card

a lagoon,
on a card.

The same stage, framed and cropped for a hero card. One canvas instance changes layout with the mode — the scene code is never copied.

01 / 04 · Immersive

Ambient

A full-bleed lagoon with almost no chrome. The stage runs until it leaves the viewport, and settles into a still frame when motion is reduced.

Stage: 1944 × 1760
Loop: 24.5 s
Look: Day lagoon
Scene: idle

Good forHero / screensaver / quiet intro

Eight scenes, four overlays, one canvas. Motion pauses when the stage leaves the viewport and freezes for reduced-motion visitors.
