public AnimalRouletteScreen(GdxGame game) {
    this.game = game;
    stage = new Stage(new ScreenViewport());
    Gdx.input.setInputProcessor(stage);
    Skin skin = new Skin(Gdx.files.internal("flat-earth/skin/flat-earth-ui.json"));
    PopUpHelper dialogHelper = new PopUpHelper(skin, stage);
    
    display = createDisplay(stage, skin);
    actions = new AnimalRouletteActions(display, dialogHelper, game);
    
    createUI(skin);
    actions.resetSelection();
}
