Thanks for your idea! I think it is totally possible to implement a screensaver with the ext-session-lock protocol. I will try to explore this idea when I have time in the next few months :)

I wish you a lot of luck; I am basically just waiting on XScreenSaver to be ported to Wayland before I move on from X11.
But jwz (XScreenSaver's creator and maintainer) doesn't give me much hope: https://www.jwz.org/blog/2025/07/xscreensaver-wayland-and-lo...
I always love the surprise when visiting jwz's site from HN
Why ... why did I click it? LOL.
Do you have a Ko-fi? 'cause I would really enjoy that screensaver.
I adore this project on its own merits too because using the memory values in an emulated game is something that has fascinated me since Twitch Plays Pokémon integrated their Twitch display!
Thank you for your kind comment! I don't have a ko-fi but I will think about creating one :)
