Full changelog

Changed — Eviland looks like MilkDrop now, not a white cloud

Eviland reacted correctly but rendered as a flat, pale cloud because three things each pushed toward "diffuse white": the feedback field only applied soft curl-noise (no structured motion), emitters were soft gaussian blobs, and the final composite was raw additive (field + bloom), so accumulating energy summed straight to white. Rebuilt the shaders to adopt MilkDrop's actual visual language while keeping Eviland's 24-band causal reactivity:

  • Feedback field now does a MilkDrop-style per-frame transform of the previous frame — inward zoom (kick/bass-driven tunnel rush), rotate + swirl (energy/beat-driven spirals), curl-noise detail on top — and a YIQ hue-rotation so trails drift through colors as they age (the signature MilkDrop palette feel). Section seed sets the spin direction so a returning chorus rhymes.
  • Emitters sharpened from blobs into crisp shapes: thin bright ring (kick), spike-star burst (snare), pinpoint + cross-streak sparkle (hat), tighter blob (vocal), hard-rim core.
  • Composite maps field intensity through a dark→accent→light palette ramp (color depth, not a brightness ramp to white), with bloom mixed at half weight as glow rather than flood, ACES tone-mapping, and dark-grounded empty zones.

Fixed — album-art overlay invisible on Eviland

The fullscreen album-cover overlay used mix-blend-mode: screen at 0.34 opacity, which washed out completely against Eviland's bright field. It now uses normal blending at 0.72 so the cover reads clearly over any visualizer.
