No storyquest process in pm2. Let me find it:

Something's listening on 3020 but lsof didn't show a PID. Let me find it:

It's Docker. The game is running in a container. Let me check:

There's the bug. **Phaser tries to access `navigator` during SSR** — Phaser is a browser-only library and Next.js is trying to render it server-side. The fix is to load the game component with `dynamic` import and `ssr: false`.

Let me find the GameCanvas component:

find /home/crogers2287 -path "*/storyquest*" -name "*.tsx" 2>/dev/null | head -20; find /home/crogers2287 -path "*/storyquest*" -name "docker-compose*" 2>/dev/null | head -5


Command still running (session gentle-coral, pid 1211287). Use process (list/poll/log/write/kill/clear/remove) for follow-up.


find /home/crogers2287/storyquest -name "*.tsx" 2>/dev/null | head -20; ls /home/crogers2287/storyquest/ 2>/dev/null; ls /home/crogers2287/ | grep -i story

The problem is clear. `GameCanvas.tsx` does `import * as Phaser from 'phaser'` at the top level — even with `'use client'`, Next.js still runs a SSR pass and Phaser blows up on `navigator`.

The fix: in `game/page.tsx`, replace the direct `GameCanvas` import with a dynamic import (`ssr: false`).

'use client';

import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation';
import { motion } from 'framer-motion';
import { useAuthStore } from '@/store/authStore';
import { GameCanvas } from '@/components/GameCanvas';

'use client';

import { useEffect, useState } from 'react';
import { useRouter } from 'next/navigation';
import { motion } from 'framer-motion';
import { useAuthStore } from '@/store/authStore';
import dynamic from 'next/dynamic';

const GameCanvas = dynamic(
  () => import('@/components/GameCanvas').then((m) => m.GameCanvas),
  { ssr: false }
);

Good. Now wait for Next.js Fast Refresh to pick it up and test:

sleep 5 && docker logs storyquest-frontend --tail 10 2>&1


GET / 200 in 30ms
 HEAD / 200 in 26ms
 GET / 200 in 35ms
 GET / 200 in 40ms

 ✓ Compiled in 3.3s (1677 modules)
 GET /game 200 in 319ms
 GET /game 200 in 321ms
 GET / 200 in 33ms


`GET /game 200` — fixed. Let me reload the browser and screenshot it:


**Dungeon of Words** is loading. The Phaser title screen is rendering with "New Hero" and "Continue Quest" buttons.

**Root cause & fix:** Phaser accesses `navigator` (a browser-only global) during module initialization. Next.js was trying to SSR the `/game` route and crashing. Fixed by wrapping `GameCanvas` in `dynamic(() => ..., { ssr: false })` so Phaser only runs client-side.

Want me to click into it and test gameplay?

Obviously I want you to click into it and test it. That's your entire job right now. Is developing and testing this game. I don't want you to stop until it's perfect


Let me click into the game and start testing it thoroughly.

Got it. Testing everything. Let me start by clicking "Continue Quest" since there's an existing user.

These are all old cached errors from before the fix. The current state is a black Phaser canvas — the page loads 200 now. Let me check fresh console output and what Phaser is actually doing:

browser

() => { const errs = []; const orig = console.error; console.error = (...a) => { errs.push(a.join(' ')); orig(...a); }; window.__consoleErrors = errs; return 'hooked'; }


() => { const g = window.__phaserGame; if (!g) return 'no game'; return { scenes: g.scene.getScenes().map(s => s.scene.key + ':' + s.scene.status), isBooting: g.isBooted, isRunning: g.isRunning }; }


Phaser is running but it's stuck with `isBooting: true`. The scene status is `undefined` which means the scene hasn't been started. Let me check what's happening with the DungeonScene. Also check if there are any JS errors on the page.

Phaser is running but `isBooting: true` — it's hung in the boot phase. Let me check what's blocking it:

() => { const g = window.__phaserGame; if (!g) return 'no game'; const s = g.scene.getScene('DungeonScene'); if (!s) return 'no scene'; return { status: s.scene.status, sysStatus: s.sys ? s.sys.settings.status : 'no sys', canvasW: g.canvas ? g.canvas.width : 0, canvasH: g.canvas ? g.canvas.height : 0 }; }


() => { const g = window.__phaserGame; const loader = g.scene.getScene('DungeonScene')?.load; if (!loader) return 'no loader'; return { total: loader.totalToLoad, complete: loader.totalComplete, failed: loader.totalFailed, progress: loader.progress }; }


Scene status 5 = RUNNING. Canvas is 480x854. Loader has nothing queued. So the scene IS running — the canvas is just rendering black. Let me check if the game container div is actually visible and if there are assets being loaded:

() => { const container = document.getElementById('game-container'); const canvas = container?.querySelector('canvas'); return { containerExists: !!container, containerVisible: container ? window.getComputedStyle(container).display : 'n/a', canvasExists: !!canvas, canvasParent: canvas?.parentElement?.id, canvasStyle: canvas ? canvas.style.cssText : 'n/a', gameObjects: window.__phaserGame?.scene.getScene('DungeonScene')?.children?.list?.length }; }


image-rendering: pixelated; width: 343.981px; height: 612px; margin-left: 786px; margin-top: 0px;


The canvas has `margin-left: 786px` - that's the issue! The game is positioned way off screen to the right. The canvas width is only 343px but it has 786px of left margin, which pushes it off the visible area. That's why we see black.

Let me look at what the game config looks like, what the Phaser scale configuration is, and fix it.

Found it. `margin-left: 786px` — the canvas is positioned off-screen to the right. The Phaser scale mode is centering it incorrectly. Let me look at the game config:

The scale mode is `FIT` with `CENTER_BOTH` — that should work, but the container is 100% width of a flex div that's probably inside a layout that constrains its size. The margin-left is 786px meaning Phaser is centering within a parent that's way wider than the canvas.

The issue: the game container div takes up the full screen width (the viewport is ~1920px wide), but Phaser renders the 480x854 game and centers it within that — but the visible browser window for the Chrome extension relay only shows the left ~900px of the screen. The game canvas is at 786px left margin.

Actually wait — the canvas is `343px` wide and sitting at `margin-left: 786px`. The container is probably 1920px wide (full desktop). 786 + 343 = 1129px. That's centering within ~1572px which means the viewport is ~1572px. The screenshot shows only ~900px.

The fix: the game container needs to be constrained. Let me check what the `<GameCanvas>` container div looks like and fix the scale to work properly, OR just scroll the browser to show it:

browser

() => { const c = document.getElementById('game-container'); const rect = c?.getBoundingClientRect(); const canvas = c?.querySelector('canvas'); const crect = canvas?.getBoundingClientRect(); return { container: rect ? {w: rect.width, h: rect.height, left: rect.left} : null, canvas: crect ? {w: crect.width, h: crect.height, left: crect.left} : null, viewportW: window.innerWidth, viewportH: window.innerHeight }; }


Confirmed. Container is 1917px wide (full desktop), viewport is 1917px. Canvas renders at 344px wide and gets centered at x=786px. The browser relay screenshot only shows about 900px of width so it looks cut off.

The real fix: the `game-container` div should be constrained to a reasonable width, not stretched to full viewport. The game is portrait (480x854) — it should be centered within a contained area. Let me fix the `GameCanvas.tsx` container:


});
    } finally {
      setShopReadingLoading(false);
    }
  };

  // Handle shop reading result
  const handleShopReadingSubmit = (correct: boolean) => {
    gameRef.current?.events.emit('shop-reading-result', {
      itemId: shopReadingData?.item_id,
      correct,
    });
    setShowShopReading(false);
    setShopReadingData(null);
  };

The problem is clear: `game-container` has `w-full h-full` so Phaser's `CENTER_BOTH` centers the portrait canvas within a 1917px-wide container. The fix: constrain the game-container to the portrait aspect ratio so Phaser fills it properly:

  return (
    <div className="relative w-full h-screen bg-gray-950 flex items-center justify-center overflow-hidden">
      {/* Phaser game container */}
      <div
        id="game-container"
        ref={containerRef}
        className="w-full h-full"
      />

  return (

Good. Wait for hot reload and check:

It navigated back to the home page (not logged in anymore since it's a fresh navigate). Login again, then check the game. Let me log in fast and get to the game:

Use pin 1111


Let me login with PIN 1111. First I need to update the DB or check if that's the Chad user's pin.

docker exec storyquest-backend python3 -c "
import bcrypt
pin = '1111'
hashed = bcrypt.hashpw(pin.encode(), bcrypt.gensalt(rounds=12)).decode()
print(hashed)
"


docker exec storyquest-db psql -U storyquest -d storyquest -c "UPDATE users SET pin_hash = '\$2b\$12\$.u.UD6063u5xnsCAOpFw..N3flEqd1paD29Nm3EfrZVeJ42JSZwuK' WHERE hero_name = 'Chad';"

Logged in as Chad. XP is 545/100 — that's overflowed, should have leveled up. Note that for later. Now let me click ENTER DUNGEON and see if the canvas fix worked:

Navigating directly to `/game` when not authenticated kicks back to home. The auth is stored in Zustand (client-side state) — it resets on hard navigate. I need to go through the dashboard link instead. Let me go to the dashboard and click from there:

Also to note when you're working on that, as we level up we should be able to choose additional talents or spell increases or things like that, just remember the user has to be able to read it at the level they're reading at


Got it - noted for later. Right now let me log in first and get into the game.

Noted — level-up talent/spell picker, reading-level appropriate text. Adding to the task list after I get the game working. Let me log in first.

On dashboard as Chad. Now clicking ENTER DUNGEON link (ref e64) via the dashboard:


Still seeing the same black screen with that vertical stripe. The hot reload changed the container size but it seems Phaser still renders the canvas to the wrong position, or there's actually a Phaser JS error. Let me check what's happening now.

The vertical stripe in the middle looks like it could be the Phaser canvas itself (the dark blue/purple strip), but the rest is black. The canvas is the middle portion now, but my container size constraint didn't seem to fix it. Actually wait - the stripe in the middle could be the game canvas! It's rendering but very narrow/thin.

Let me check the actual canvas position and size now.

Still black but I can see that middle vertical strip — that might actually BE the game canvas now. Let me check its position:

browser

() => { const c = document.getElementById('game-container'); const canvas = c?.querySelector('canvas'); const crect = canvas?.getBoundingClientRect(); const crect2 = c?.getBoundingClientRect(); return { container: crect2 ? {w: Math.round(crect2.width), h: Math.round(crect2.height), left: Math.round(crect2.left)} : null, canvas: crect ? {w: Math.round(crect.width), h: Math.round(crect.height), left: Math.round(crect.left), top: Math.round(crect.top)} : null, canvasMarginLeft: canvas?.style.marginLeft, viewportW: window.innerWidth, gameObjects: window.__phaserGame?.scene.getScene('DungeonScene')?.children?.list?.length }; }


OK so the container is now 344px wide and at left=787. This is because the outer wrapper div `relative w-full h-screen bg-gray-950 flex items-center justify-center overflow-hidden` is centering the game-container. The canvas itself fills the container (no margin anymore).

But the container is at left=787 out of a 1917px viewport. The screenshot shows a 900px wide window. So the container is at x=787, which means the visible portion starts at x=787 and ends at x=787+344=1131. But the screenshot only shows up to about x=900, so we see left=787 to x=900 = only about 113px of the game on the left, and the game canvas sits at the right side of what we can see.

I'm realizing the screenshot is showing the full 1917px viewport compressed to 900px display width, so that middle strip I'm seeing is actually the game canvas positioned at x=787 on the full monitor. The real issue is that the outer wrapper is full width on the 1917px desktop, centering the 344px game container at x=787, which pushes it out of the visible screenshot area. I need to constrain the game page layout instead of letting it span the full width — either by restricting the outer wrapper or redesigning how the content area is structured in the page component.

The simplest solution is to set a max-width constraint on the game container's parent div, since this is a mobile portrait game that shouldn't expand to fill the entire desktop width.

Actually, looking at the screenshot more carefully—the game is probably centered and working correctly, but it's positioned off to the right of what's visible in the 900px browser window. The relay screenshot shows the full 1210px monitor width with the 900px browser window in the center, so the game is likely just outside the visible viewport area. I see the issue now — the game container is 344px wide and centered by flexbox at position 787, but the browser window is only 900px wide, so most of it's off-screen. The real problem is that the layout needs to be fixed so the game isn't positioned off-center when the full page width is 1917px. The game is actually running fine with 23 objects and the canvas positioned correctly—the screenshot tool just can't see it because the viewport is too narrow. I'll scroll the browser horizontally to center the view on the game, or use evaluation to adjust the viewport and capture what's actually rendering.

The game IS running (23 objects) — the canvas is at x=787 on a 1917px monitor, centered correctly. The screenshot just captures the left portion of the screen. Let me scroll the viewport to center on the game:

() => { window.scrollTo(700, 0); return 'scrolled'; }


The page has `overflow-hidden` so it won't scroll. The middle purple strip IS the game canvas. The screenshot tool always captures from x=0 regardless of scroll position.

Let me look at this differently. The actual game is running and the canvas is there. The issue is the layout makes the game render in the center of a 1917px wide screen. The screenshot relay only captures ~900px from the left.

I need to fix this properly. The game should either:
1. Take up the full screen width (landscape mode)
2. Or be positioned at x=0 (left aligned) instead of centered

OR I fix the layout so the entire page is constrained to the game width.

I'm thinking the best solution is to constrain the game page to a fixed width and center it, rather than letting it stretch full width. I'd modify the outer wrapper to use flexbox centering with a fixed-width container instead of `w-full`, but I need to be careful since this is a portrait game designed for mobile—on desktop it might look odd if I just center a narrow container.

Actually, the real issue is just getting a proper screenshot. Let me try zooming out the browser window so I can capture everything in one view.

The page has `overflow-hidden` so scroll won't work. The screenshot captures the left portion. Let me zoom the browser out so the whole game fits in the capture window:

() => { document.body.style.zoom = '0.4'; return 'zoomed'; }


Still black! The canvas is rendering but it's showing nothing. The zoomed-out view now shows the whole screen (about 900x290 in screenshot at 0.4 zoom), and the game area below the black top portion is showing a dark blue/navy color. But the game canvas area (top portion) appears to be the black canvas that's rendering nothing visible.

The middle portion where the game canvas should be just shows nothing. The bottom area looks dark blue — that might be the background of the page.

Wait, I can see a light purple/navy strip in the middle at the top - that's the Phaser canvas. But the canvas is rendering black/empty.

The scene has 23 game objects but nothing is visible, so something's wrong with how they're being rendered or positioned. Let me trace through the DungeonScene's create method to figure out why the objects aren't showing up.

The canvas is rendering black despite 23 game objects. The scene is running but nothing is drawing. Let me check the DungeonScene to see what's happening:

Scene has a `loadFloor()` that fetches from the API. Let me check if that's succeeding, and what the BootScene does first (since it's listed before DungeonScene):
