Performance release. The animations were heavy enough to make browsers stutter, Snake most of all. Every game now plays the same animation with far less work per frame, and looks the same.

  • Snake is about 3x cheaper per frame, and its body no longer breaks apart during the speed-up in Chrome
  • Galaga is about 3x cheaper; Invaders, Breakout, Bomberman, Asteroids, Centipede and Tron are 1.3 to 2.4x cheaper
  • Explosions, shots and pops reuse a few shared elements instead of one each
  • The README banner's bulbs glow with gradients instead of a blur each

Nothing to change in your workflow: Nicsilver/commit-arcade@v1 picks this up on its next run.
