Update time. I renamed it to Jurasasphere and made the globe actually look alive with real NASA earth texture, stars behind it, a glowing atmosphere. Before it was a black ball floating in a black void, not ideal.
Every fossil record fills itself in from Wikipedia now, so you get a real photo and a normal-English description. Added a button that says the dino’s name out loud (half of them are unpronounceable) plus a hand-drawn sketch of how big it was next to a 1.8m person.
The whole scene reskins to wherever you dug: jungle, desert, polar or plains. And each one actually moves. Snow drifts in the polar one, heat shimmers in the desert, grass sways on the plains. All of it shuts off if you’ve got reduced-motion on.
Also found one bug where the close button just wouldn’t close. Turned out an invisible scroll layer was sitting on top of it eating every click. Fixed it, and made Escape close the panel too.
New stuff to mess with: a surprise me button, shareable links (every record has its own URL), search autocomplete, a near me button that flies to your closest dig, a day/night toggle, and a time scrubber that rewinds the map to one moment in the Mesozoic.
