Architecture

This mod uses a data-driven animation system built around a clean separation of concerns:

• ISplashScreenAnimationData — Interface defining animation metadata (frame count, timing, sound, textures). New animation types can be added by implementing this interface.
• FolderAnimationData — A record implementation that resolves textures from textures/gui/title/{id}/ and sound events via the gui.title.{id} naming convention.
• AnimationPlayer — Encapsulates all animation state (frame progression, sound playback, lifecycle). Runs animation on a daemon thread with thread-safe access via AtomicInteger/AtomicBoolean.
• SplashLoader — Registry for animation data. Animations are pre-registered during client initialization since the splash screen renders during resource loading.
• SplashOverlayMixin — A thin Mixin layer that delegates all logic to AnimationPlayer. The Mixin itself holds no animation knowledge.

Adding a new animation requires only:

1. Place frame textures in textures/gui/title/{id}/
2. Place sound in sounds/gui/title/{id}.ogg
3. Register with splashLoader.register(new FolderAnimationData("id", frameCount))
