explanation + credits
with apologies to @staff, i put bitsy on cohost(i don't think it works on mobile, sorry!)
this was created using two svg files. one is simply a button, which contains a link to the other svg (that's positioned right behind it). this was achieved by uploading both images as drafts, and then grabbing their links
the second svg contains a bitsy game, which is fully interactable. svg files can run javascript, but not inline — in other words, the game only runs once the button opens it in a new window. as a side effect of this, the game-image would ordinarily be blank before launching... so i cheated it. what you're seeing on your dashboard is simply a screenshot of the game that i put inside the svg, and clear as soon as javascript runs
thanks to @ticky for inspiring this, and @nex3 for creating an eggbug svg! and thanks to adam ledoux for creating bitsy, as well as sean s. leblanc for his many hacks
But it's also the case it caused me to drop everything and spend awhile testing Cohost's CORS policies in a state of serious apprehension
