Lizard Cursor

Lizard Cursor is a cursor effect in the UI HUB cursor effects collection. A segmented creature (lizard/centipede) that follows the mouse using Inverse Kinematics. Each segment trails the previous maintaining fixed distance. Legs step periodically with bezier arcs. Click triggers a quick strike lunge.

The component is driven by 3 documented props (segmentCount, color, legCount), so colours, intensity, timing and density can be tuned from the call site instead of being hard-coded.

Implementation notes: Inverse Kinematics chain (atan2 + distance constraint); Leg stepping system with cubic bezier foot arcs; Head easing toward mouse with configurable speed.
