Conversation
A survivor's picture now tears apart while the slender stands in their field of view, in four levels that grow as he closes in, and it stops entirely the moment they cannot see him — standing behind someone does nothing, however close. That question (can he be seen) is different from proximity, so it lives as its own effect instead of being folded into tunnel vision. A real colour-space shift would need a post-processing shader, and Minecraft 26.2 has no way to switch one on per player, so the colour is laid over the world as a camera_overlay rather than recalculated from it. Only survivors are affected; the textures themselves ship separately in cygnus-pack. `/glitch <1-4>` previews a level from the lobby without a slender present, and `/glitch off` clears it, so the four drawings can be judged before a match.
Constructs SlenderGazeService on the shared screen overlay and registers its listener behind the existing OverlayProperties.enabled() guard, so it only runs where the resource pack that carries the glitch textures is delivered. Also registers /glitch so a level can be previewed from the lobby before a match.

Summary
A survivor's picture tears apart while the slender stands in their field of
view, in four levels that grow as he closes in, and it stops entirely the
moment they cannot see him — standing behind someone does nothing, however
close. That question — can he be seen — is different from proximity, which is
why it lives as its own effect rather than being folded into tunnel vision.
A real colour-space shift would need a post-processing shader, and Minecraft
26.2 has no way to switch one on per player, so the colour is laid over the
world as a
camera_overlayrather than recalculated from it. Only survivorsare affected. The textures themselves ship separately in cygnus-pack.
/glitch <1-4>previews a level from the lobby without a slender present, and/glitch offclears it, so the four drawings can be judged before a match.Notes
refactor/overlay-foundation); rebase onto its target branchonce that PR merges.
Cygnus.javawill conflict with the sibling tunnel vision and blood PRs,since all three wire their service into the same constructor and
registerGameListener(). Whichever of the three merges second will need arebase.
