Nice new features! Glad for scroll driven animations even though it didn’t get accepted for Interop 2025.

OOC, will there be any change to @media pointer when iPad is connnected to a mouse (eg. magic keyboard)? The new cursor is an arrow so wondering it will be considered “fine” instead of “coarse”

Unfortunately, I don't know the artist that drew this artwork.

Background art of King André's hideout on Skull Island, before it was added into the game.

This image has a higher resolution and a greater number of colours, though it has not been upscaled.

The artists would have to reduce the colours to 256 due to technical limitations.
