    Web ↔ native feature parity, a cinematic matrix upgrade, and richer colours.

    Web build — now matches the native app

    • Analog-CRT pass — barrel curvature + bezel, RGB aperture grille, NTSC dot-crawl, warm halation.
    • Dynamic banking flight (CameraFly) on terrain / city / void, with an adjustable bank strength.
    • One-click Looks — Clean · Heavy CRT · Broken Terminal · Vaporwave · Matrix.
    • Cinematic 5-layer matrix rain, rendered in-monitor (bloomed + CRT-curved) — replaces the old flat overlay. Depth layers, glowing white heads, quadratic-fading trails, scattered glyph mutation. Toggle via the Matrix Look, the FX bar, or ?matrix=1.

    Native macOS app

    • Flat-HUD toggle — draw the HUD + terminal crisp and straight over the curved scene, instead of warped into it.
    • Richer preset colours — lower exposure + capped per-preset bloom, so saturated presets (phosphor, crimson, ember) keep their hue instead of blooming to white. Palettes unchanged; differentiation now close to the web.
