/* =========================================================
   VERTICAL WORLD: Gaming ("Terraria — Grassy Ground & Torchlight")
   A warm, earthy 2D-sandbox-adventure world. The stage is dirt
   and cavern brown with grass on top; panels are wooden signs and
   inventory slots framed in dark soil; the HUD speaks in life
   HEARTS (red), gold COINS (the four stats), GRASS-green progress,
   and TORCH amber. No cool blue-black, no magenta, no CRT scanlines,
   no neon glow: the whole palette is warm and natural. Motion is
   glow-free steps() sprite motion (torch flicker, heart beat, coin
   spin, item bob). Scoped under [data-vertical="gaming"] so the
   tokens re-skin the shared shell automatically.
