I updated Lorien Stern's website will lots of easter eggs and other surprises.

We used Lorien's awesome all-caps custom handwritten typeface as the main site font.

Random animals drawn by Lorien crawl across the screen to separate sections of the page.

When hovering over titles, each letter changes color randomly between a set of colors Lorien chose.

Every 30 seconds or so, one of four shark designs comes onto the screen and swims around randomly until it leaves the screen in a random direction. Click the shark to get taken to the secret page! This premium easter egg is a wild page where Lorien's characters fill the screen in a random orientation and you can bump them around on the screen with your mouse. Click to reset the animals!

To work at a high frame rate, I prepared a spritesheet of Lorien's characters, and then utilized an Offscreen Canvas and requestAnimationFrame to draw animals at their calculated positions.
