✍️ Editor’s Notes

This is a rare anti-realism move in this whole batch — frame_rate is deliberately written as “12fps, with intentional retro stutter on impact frames”. Every other entry is chasing smoothness; this one flips it and demands “choppiness” as the correct style, aiming to recreate the feel of an SNES-era pixel RPG rather than treating it as a rendering flaw. The dialogue field isn't left blank this time either — it gives the mechanical sea monster an actual taunt line, which is different from most of this batch's habit of leaving dialogue empty. That tells you the author understood that in a boss-fight scene, the dialogue itself is part of the atmosphere and deserves real lines instead of leaving the visuals to carry it alone.
