Priority fixes

  1. [contrast_color] Add a subtle warm or cool rim light or vignette edge to the capsule border so it visually separates from the Steam dark background #1b2838 during quick scroll.
  2. [genre_clarity] Introduce a small but legible environmental or action cue, such as a glowing trail, paw-print path, or visible threat silhouette, to hint at the adventure or chase gameplay loop at tiny size.
  3. [contrast_color] Increase the value contrast on the stylized dog face by brightening the white fur areas and deepening the shadow regions so the silhouette reads crisply in grayscale and at tiny thumbnail scale.
  4. [uniqueness_polish] Simplify or reduce the background village detail so the remaining elements are intentional story beats rather than ambient texture, lifting the overall polish toward the benchmark indie titles.
