Games visual polish and emulator validation

Date: 2026-10-11. Branch: games, opening head b610583. Status: SCOPED_EMULATOR_PASS / INTEGRATION_PENDING. Global acceptance: ACCEPTANCE_BLOCKED (pre-existing domain coverage gate). The user explicitly authorized GitHub branch backup and emulator validation/polish, superseding the earlier device deferral for this Games scope only. Preserve all other checkouts, backend/data/application/iOS code and existing game physics/version. GitHub accepted the initial seven commits via configured origin and reported its canonical rename to AlexandreZanata/Abastevo; do not change shared remotes.

Bounded microtasks

• GME-M08: run existing emulator cases, capture baseline and regression findings.
• GME-M09: upgrade native scenes/HUD, readable silhouettes and input feedback.
• GME-M10: upgrade selector/tutorial/results/control hierarchy and game previews.
• GME-M11: emulator regressions, offline navigation/play/pause/records, screenshots, scoped unit/lint/APK/size evidence and branch backup. Each implemented microtask has an atomic commit and authorized branch push.

Behavior and acceptance contracts

B-BR-GME-P01: presentation/input feedback may change, but mobile-v1 physics, collision/scoring/order, fixed clock and bounded records remain unchanged. A frame must reuse brushes/paths/shaders and bounded decorative objects; no downloaded assets, new engine/dependency/backend or network requirement. B-BR-GME-P02: preview art, coherent scene colors, clear primary actions and score/time labels make each game recognizable. Input has immediate visual feedback; reduced motion disables decorative animation; mute remains default. B-BR-GME-P03: text/menu controls remain readable in light/dark themes, portrait, landscape and 2x font scale; no fixed text height clipping. Existing explicit pause/resume and failed-record feedback remain intact. BUC-GME-P01: offline guest sees previews, chooses either game, learns controls, plays using gestures/buttons, pauses/backgrounds/resumes, finishes and restarts. BUC-GME-P02: process/activity recreation abandons unfinished games and completed bests survive; screenshots contain synthetic game data only.

Use only serial emulator-5580, API 26 x86_64 / Nexus 5X 1080x1920 @420dpi, 1536 MiB RAM, software graphics, read-only AVD session and no snapshot save. No physical-phone install, data wipe, account/profile operation, backend call, PR/merge/wiki/deployment or release certification. Emulator behavior cannot certify physical-device battery/thermal/audio/TalkBack or real hardware FPS. The pre-existing global domain coverage failure remains an integration blocker; keep the threshold and other agents' code unchanged.

Evidence

GME-M08 LOCAL_DONE: initial four instrumented cases PASS (2.439s). Added a visual-review case and synchronized Compose/PixelCopy captures; final baseline 5/5 PASS (4.254s), without network (airplane flag 1, Wi-Fi 0, mobile data 0; no active connectivity agent). svc wifi disable did not change the actual Wi-Fi state on this AVD; verified Settings UI switch was used instead.

Commands: ./gradlew :app:assembleDebugAndroidTest --offline --console=plain --max-workers=2; adb -s emulator-5580 install -r <debug APK/test APK>; adb -s emulator-5580 shell am instrument -w -r -e class com.anpfuel.app.games.GamesScreenDeviceTest com.anpfuel.app.debug.test/androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner. Captured selector, both tutorials/playfields and pause overlay. PixelCopy captures contain the current rendered frame, unlike unsynchronized automation screenshots. Inspected baseline shows text-only selection cards, flat scenery, a small player silhouette and unused letterbox space. No behavior defect was found in the existing four cases. Next: M09 native scene/HUD/input feedback. Diff/secret scan PASS. GitHub branch backup accepted at b610583.

GME-M09 LOCAL_DONE (scoped renderer): original shared vector scene painter, cached gradients/brush/path/typeface, layered Flight landscape and detailed pump silhouettes, dusk Run road/station and distinct cone/beam/truck silhouettes, mascot visor/feet/shadows, bounded input rings/pickup glow, localized fitting HUD and three-minute progress bar. Static preview compositions share this painter without a running session. Reduced-motion removes decorative trail/feedback/gait/scroll; input haptics honor system settings. Existing mobile-v1 domain source is byte-unchanged. 9 games app unit cases PASS; debug and instrumentation APK builds PASS (20s). 5/5 offline API 26 emulator cases PASS (3.945s); current-frame Flight/Run screenshots visually inspected. No native crash or UI regression in these cases. M09 lint PASS (zero errors, 177 existing warnings, no games diagnostic), diff/secret review PASS; next M10 shell polish.

GME-M10 LOCAL_DONE (scoped shell): illustrated adaptive selection cards share native art without frame callbacks; clear play actions, local-best icon/labels, settings group, centered scrollable tutorial/pause/results cards over the scene, large primary result, and labeled 52dp directional/action controls. Inactive control panels disappear from menus. Material ripple and native input rings provide interaction feedback. 9 affected unit cases PASS; lint/debug/test APK PASS (38s). Visual inspection found native preview paint escaping its Compose bounds into descriptive text. Added a pixel regression: RED expected white (-1), actual scene (-14524300). Explicit native clipping fixes the defect; proportional center-crop avoids stretching the mascot. Six emulator cases (including regression) passed after clipping (6.86s); final proportional preview check 6/6 PASS (7.389s). Final lint/debug/instrumentation APK PASS (39s), zero lint errors and no games diagnostic. Final preview inspected: clear text background and undistorted mascot. Diff/secret review PASS. Next M11 expanded acceptance.

GME-M11 acceptance

Expanded real native interaction cases cover runner swipe/lane buttons/jump/slide, Flight finish/restart/button/tap, persisted settings, Portuguese dark-theme play, landscape controls/pause/resume and 2x-font tutorial/start/actions. Ten portrait cases passed before the final landscape repair (15.58s). The initial landscape precondition read a stale application configuration; the corrected fixture fixes UiAutomation rotation, verifies the actual Activity configuration and releases it in teardown. A subsequent RED case exposed a product defect: starting in landscape moved AndroidView from Column to Row, detaching it and pausing the session. Keep the native stage in the same Row slot regardless of game phase; only the sidebar changes visibility. Final GREEN evidence is recorded below.

Real MainActivity guest navigation Profile → Games was exercised offline. Background/foreground showed Game paused / Continue. Rotating the Activity restored the selector and discarded the unfinished game. Some selection buttons were below the fold in landscape; reachability is verified with scrolling rather than falsely assuming every button is simultaneously visible. Actual process force-stop/relaunch (different process IDs) followed by Profile → Games → Flight returned How to play / Start, without Continue or data wipe.

GME-M11 LOCAL_DONE (scoped emulator/polish): final portrait 10/10 PASS (15.717s), final landscape 2/2 PASS (3.18s), zero failures/skips. Each fixture explicitly freezes its required orientation, checks Activity configuration and releases rotation; the first portrait attempt inherited landscape and timed out waiting for an offscreen lazy-list selector. The corrected fixture passes without extending timeouts. Final screenshots were visually inspected. Landscape review also found labels breaking mid-word in the narrow two-column sidebar. A native text-layout regression failed against the old APK (expected one line, actual two), then passed with one-column controls below 280dp. Buttons remain labeled, full sized and scrollable at enlarged text. The game stage remains attached throughout start/pause/resume.

Final checks on the unchanged runtime inputs:

• ./gradlew :app:testDebugUnitTest --tests 'com.anpfuel.app.games.*' :app:lintDebug :app:assembleDebug :app:assembleDebugAndroidTest :app:verifyReleaseApkSize --offline --console=plain --max-workers=2: PASS (1m9s); 9 affected app unit tests, no failures/errors/skips.
• Full app unit suite previously passed 258/258 before the final responsive layout repairs; affected unit/native/build/lint checks reran after those repairs.
• Lint: zero errors/fatals, 177 existing warnings, no Games source/test diagnostic.
• Debug and test APKs installed using adb -s emulator-5580 install -r. Separate final instrumentation calls used shell am instrument -w -r -e class with com.anpfuel.app.games.GamesScreenDeviceTest and com.anpfuel.app.games.GamesLandscapeDeviceTest, runner com.anpfuel.app.debug.test/androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner. Success was read from actual OK (10 tests) / OK (2 tests) output, not inferred from shell exit status. Wi-Fi 0 / airplane flag 1 / mobile data 0.
• Unsigned release APK: 4,345,457 bytes (4.14 MiB), below the existing 15 MiB limit; +85,604 bytes over 4,259,853-byte source baseline. SHA256: 577eada3f6d92796d322ec2ac1ba68c0f9c4bb13a89928fefa8fde893148dc3b.
• Tested runtime fingerprint: SHA256 of git diff 571f904 -- app/src/main domain/src/main: 310c8614ee31598bb50144261aab5faf3819d30f8c048966ad21836b178d400a. Only documentation/evidence follow these runtime checks.
• Five original synthetic captures include Portuguese dark selection, both games, landscape controls and 2x-font tutorial. PNGs are documentation assets excluded from the APK, without editing.
• git diff --check and repository secret scan PASS; changed documentation reviewed for secret patterns. All 12 original fuel-v1 asset files remain byte-identical to 2270da3; backend/data/application/iOS and domain behavior remain unchanged during this polish batch. No dependency addition.

M08 c758bbb, M09 4eb8258 and M10 9087578 were individually pushed; M11 publishes the repaired layout, regression cases and this evidence through configured origin/games. The configured shared remote remains unchanged. GitHub branch.

Global domain coverage remains the unchanged pre-existing integration blocker (87.2467% vs 90%; baseline 86.5864%). Domain source/tests are unchanged by visual polish, reusing the 508-case report from the prior matching domain tree (24 games). No physical-device battery/thermal/FPS/audio/TalkBack claim. No ranking/backend, PR/merge/wiki or release certification. Source/assets outside Games are preserved.
