Dense Caption

Black background features repeating red pixelated line patterns creating overlapping diamond and cross shapes. Four instances of the word 'SQUIGGLY' in bright yellow, all-caps, blocky font are positioned at top-left, top-right, bottom-left, and bottom-right corners. Each text instance is rendered with a distinct pixel grid style typical of early digital graphics. The red lines form interconnected geometric patterns that shift slightly between frames while maintaining consistent overall structure.
