screensaver goes black after 1 second #1

After I started the screensaver, it shows Monika's image for about 1 second, and then goes black.

macOS Catalina 10.15.7 (19H114) binary: v1.2/JustMonika.saver.zip

Well, this sucks :)

I have a machine running macOS 10.15.7 (19H2) and another one with the same 19H114 version as you have. The screen saver works there, so I guess this isn't related to the OS version.

I don't really remember if I saw symptoms like you see during development, but I'd guess the most likely reason is that the screen saver crashes or something, and the OS is forced to show a blank screen instead. And since it's like a personal hobby project, there isn't much telemetry, logs, or anything like that to assist remote debugging...

How technical are you willing to go with debugging assistance?

IDK, is there anything suspicious showing up in Console.app when the screen goes blank?

P.S. You had to notice this right as my Apple tax lapsed!

I'll try checking Console.app as well. Totally forgot that the logs might be there. Meanwhile, trying to attach XCode to it.
