Summary

  • Return 404 for unknown game slugs in src/pages/games/[slug].astro instead of crashing on missing entry
  • Filter defaultGames against gamesMap in layout.astro and index.astro so stale slugs can't break pages
  • Fix IndexNow script to read sitemap-index.xml + child sitemaps
  • Remove redundant trailing-slash redirects (handled by trailingSlash: never)
  • Clamp Flash player size to 200px min and show error when gamePath is missing

Testing

  • Ran: bun run check not run
  • Ran: bun run lint not run

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved Flash game display sizing on short screens.
    • Added a clear “Game not available” message when a game cannot be loaded.
    • Invalid or unknown game URLs now return a proper 404 page.
    • Removed broken game links from related-game sections and the games grid.
    • Improved URL handling to avoid unnecessary trailing-slash redirects.

- Return 404 for unknown game slugs instead of crashing
- Filter stale slugs from home and More Games lists
- Fix IndexNow to read sitemap-index children; drop dead slash redirects

Walkthrough

The PR updates URL canonicalization and sitemap submission, adds handling for unavailable or unknown games, and filters rendered game lists to entries present in gamesMap.

Changes

Game routing and catalog handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
URL canonicalization and sitemap submission
astro.config.mjs, scripts/indexnow.mjs
Trailing-slash redirects were removed where trailingSlash: "never" applies. IndexNow now reads child sitemaps from dist/sitemap-index.xml and caps the combined URL list at 10,000 entries.
Unavailable game handling
src/components/flash.astro, src/pages/games/[slug].astro
Flash dimensions have a 200px minimum. Empty game paths show Game not available. Missing or unknown slugs return a 404 response.
Known-slug catalog filtering
src/layout/layout.astro, src/pages/index.astro
Related-game lists, popular games, and the all-games grid now exclude slugs missing from gamesMap.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 74b6f

Users can still be sent to game URLs that now return 404, and short viewports can produce a scrolling Flash player. Filter the client-side lists and respect the available player height before merging.

Review of #88feature/fix/unknown-slug-404:

Good direction, small gaps.

What works:

  • src/pages/games/[slug].astro:11-15gamesMap[slug] guard with return new Response(null, {status: 404}) is the correct Astro pattern. Prevents crash on missing entry. Note: with static prerender this branch is dead at build time (getStaticPaths only builds known slugs); it only matters for dev/SSR fallback, but harmless as defense.
  • src/layout/layout.astro:53-54, src/pages/index.astro:9,100 — filtering defaultGames against gamesMap stops one stale slug from crashing home + More Games. Correct.
  • scripts/indexnow.mjs:19-24 — fix is correct. @astrojs/sitemap emits sitemap-index.xml + sitemap-*.xml, never sitemap.xml. Old code always hit the catch path. New locs() + child iteration is right.
  • src/components/flash.astro:87-88,120-123Math.max(200, ...) clamp prevents negative px on short viewports; !GAME_PATH early error is correct since [slug].astro:21 passes seo.gamePath || "".

Issues:

  1. Incomplete stale-slug guard — src/layout/layout.astro:350 random button still uses unfiltered list:

    <script is:inline define:vars={{ slugs: defaultGames }}>
    

    If defaultGames has a stale slug, random can navigate to a 404. Filter it the same way: define:vars={{ slugs: defaultGames.filter((s) => gamesMap[s]) }} — but define:vars needs a precomputed const, not inline. Same for src/pages/index.astro:64 valid: defaultGames used for recently-played validation — should be filtered for consistency.

  2. astro.config.mjs:13-19 redirect removal is unverified. trailingSlash: "never" controls generated URLs, it does not guarantee a 301 from /games/tetris//games/tetris on static Vercel hosting. Those 7 slash variants were noted as "Google still serves impressions for". Removing them risks turning those impressions into 404s. Either keep them (7 lines is cheap) or verify on the Vercel preview that /games/tetris/ 301s without them.

No React/server/large-JS added, static-first intact. Fix issue 1, resolve 2 with a preview check, run check+lint, then ship.

Filter stale slugs in define:vars lists (random button, recently-played); restore trailing-slash redirects.

Review of #88 feature/fix/unknown-slug-404 — approve.

Correct:

  • src/pages/games/[slug].astro:11-15gamesMap[slug] guard with return new Response(null, {status: 404}) is the right Astro pattern. Dead at static build (getStaticPaths only builds known slugs), useful as dev/SSR defense.
  • src/layout/layout.astro:52-60,351 + src/pages/index.astro:9-10,65,101knownGames = defaultGames.filter((s) => gamesMap[s]) applied consistently to More Games, random-button slugs, recently-played valid, popular + grid. One stale slug can no longer crash home or every game page. Follow-up commit 28d5db9 fixed the two define:vars gaps from the first revision.
  • astro.config.mjs:13-24 — trailing-slash redirects restored. Correct to keep: trailingSlash: "never" doesn't guarantee 301s on static Vercel, and those 7 variants carry Search impressions.
  • scripts/indexnow.mjs:15-25sitemap-index.xml + child iteration is correct; @astrojs/sitemap never emits sitemap.xml. Old code always hit the catch path.
  • src/components/flash.astro:86-88,120-123Math.max(200, ...) clamp prevents negative px on short viewports; !GAME_PATH fail-fast is correct since [slug].astro:21 passes seo.gamePath || "".

Nits (non-blocking):

  • Process: PR body says bun run check / lint not run. Per AGENTS.md §3.2 both are required before merge. Could not verify here (bun unavailable in this runner).
  • indexnow.mjs:26-27 — catch message says sitemap-index.xml not found but also fires if a child sitemap read fails. Misleading but harmless.

No static-first / Ruffle / React / SEO violations. No heavy JS. Ship after check + lint.

🟠 Major · Filter every client-side use of defaultGames through gamesMap. · src/layout/layout.astro:350-350

350-350: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Filter every client-side use of defaultGames through gamesMap. The server-rendered lists now exclude stale slugs, but these injected client lists still accept them. Users can still receive links to game routes that return 404.

  • src/layout/layout.astro#L350-L350: pass a gamesMap-filtered list to slugs before random-game selection.
  • src/pages/index.astro#L64-L64: pass a gamesMap-filtered list to valid before rendering recently played entries.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Respect the available height on short viewports.

When vh - headerOffset - pad * 2 is below 200px, maxH becomes 200px. On a wide, short viewport, the 4:3 player receives a 200px height even though #flash-player-wrap has less available height. The wrapper has no overflow constraint, so the player extends outside it and the document scrolls. maxWidth: 100% prevents the corresponding narrow-width case from causing horizontal overflow.

Use a non-negative available height below 200px instead of forcing maxH to 200px. Keep the 200px minimum only when the available height can contain it.
