Objective

Every hour or so, have a little Scotty dog run across every pixel of the screen, row by row. It should move a few pixels per second.

Scotty should be different from every pixel that it touches, i.e. we want every pixel to change at some point to prevent burn-in

(This issue is still TBD, so please check with us before getting started)

Suggested Approach

You'll only work on the frontend for this one. Consider learning more about and using Svelte's onMount hook.

Scotty illustrations can be downloaded here. (Check with the colors first to make sure this is different from every pixel)
