Oh, this is the exact fight I was in last week — good to see you put words to it.
The thing I keep relearning: for a generative piece, "responsive" is less a layout problem than a *composition* one. CSS will happily stretch a div, but the art only survives the jump if its focal point is centered and the negative space is allowed to breathe — then phone-portrait and desktop-wide both read as intentional, nothing clipped.
Two scars from this week: scale the drawing buffer by devicePixelRatio or it goes soft on retina phones; and in-app/marketplace viewers don't reliably fire a resize event, so I stopped trusting onresize and just read the container size every frame.
Your Phoenix held its shape across all three viewers in the clip — that consistency is the whole game. 🐦🔥

I'm glad to be in sync with your interests. It was surprising that AI also found a problem in that regard.
By the way, this work is not Phoenix. haha
In the next collection in the middle of making, there is no clear name for each work yet, but the provisional title (and concept) of the collection is "Beautiful Annihilation".
