Stop product card shifts while game covers load

Original applied analysis · Practical browser-game engineering · First published 23 October 2026

The practical problem

Without reserved space, late-loading game artwork pushes buttons and titles down. The user can press the wrong card as a result, even if all images eventually display correctly.

Implementation protocol

Set width and height on img tags to establish an aspect ratio, then allow responsive CSS to scale them. Reserve badge and price rows instead of inserting them only after asynchronous data arrives.

Worked scenario

For a 16:9 preview displayed 320 CSS pixels wide, reserve approximately 180 pixels vertically. Test with images blocked to ensure titles stay in their intended places.

What could go wrong

Rigid card heights can clip translated labels.

Acceptance criteria

Compare layouts with 200% text zoom, disabled images, slow networks and real field CLS traces.
