Development checkpoint / Oct 1, 2026

The ice cream truck came back.

A later crossover, with a very real accounting problem.

The original standalone Scoop Riot was not Poppy’s Culinary. Later County work added an explicitly developed Scoop Riot truck bonus, with its own return path and shared-wallet checks.

Recorded browser and Windows reviews covered the loss-title rotation, paused unfinished cones, leaving and returning, once-only rewards, muted preferences and cold restarts in synthetic accounts.

Animated loss sprites could spill over the flavor controls. The fix changed drawing order so opaque control panels protected their content; it did not need a replacement scoring or save system.

A short bounce animation was missed in one capture, and an intermittent native-close observation was retained. Human listening comfort remained open. A clean test result did not justify deleting an awkward observation.

Evidence & perspective

  • Scoop Riot truck and panel acceptance · 2026-10-01 · Recorded browser and Windows development review

    Later County bonus-game integration was explicitly developed. Original standalone Scoop Riot remains a distinct game. Synthetic-account checks are not live player-account acceptance.
