The web version works fine on Windows 10, but when I try within Chrome on Mac, it shows the Play button, and then all goes black. Game/Animation never loads.

Research direction
Investigate the WebGL initialization in the web version. Check if the issue is related to canvas context creation on macOS Chrome. Look into recent changes in the `web` or `src` directories. Review comments for any debugging done by others. Consider adding logging to identify where it fails.
