Ah interesting, I have playtested on safari, chrome, and edge. I’ll have to look into what’s unique there. Thank you!

I figured out why it wouldn't work on my machine:
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
*, *::before, *::after {
animation-duration: 0.01ms !important;
animation-iteration-count: 1 !important;
transition-duration: 0.01ms !important;
}
}
With reduced-motion enabled (which is basically required in Tahoe :eyeroll:), animations complete immediately and there is no chance to click the salt/water.

Ah! Tried to add an accessibility feature and broke it! I’ll see what I can do to find a better middle ground.

This should be fixed, I just removed the animation stop for this game.

Same reason for me, I don't want animations specifically in my OS.
I wish there was a separate OS-level setting for apps.

Is this still happening? I thought I gutted the reduce animation coding

Up-to-date Firefox on Linux allowed me to complete certification of a shipment of Jet fuel, no trouble all the way through.
Great concept and execution.

Hurray! Thank you for the update note. I was going to get after it tonight after I put the kids to bed otherwise.

If you open the Firefox inspection window, right-click any element on a webpage and select Inspect. Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+C (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Option+C (Mac). You can also access it via the menu button (three horizontal lines) -> More Tools -> Web Developer Tools.
Does it show any errors?
