For anyone wanting to change this in their existing experiment, change this url in client/src/components/Avatar.jsx from:

https://avatars.dicebear.com/api/identicon/${player.id}.svg

To:

https://api.dicebear.com/7.x/identicon/svg?seed=${player.id}

Note that you can this avatar service offers other avatars if you prefer. You just need to change the name of the avatar kind from identicon to what you chose, such as big-ears. Check them out here: https://www.dicebear.com/playground/
