Connection refused error screen has no game :`(

Reported by gonda...@gmail.com, Jun 26 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.109 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. open a new tab
2. enter http://localhost:1234/ (or any valid host with a port that actively refused)
3. press space bar

What is the expected behavior?
A side scrolling space game commences.

What went wrong?
A side scrolling space game did not commence.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 59.0.3071.109  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.5
Flash Version: 

Another alternative game would be some sort of emotional journey for the sad folded paper man.

Is this still an issue? Can you provide a network log?

Hi, yes this is still an issue :) 

The problem is a very serious one:
When developers are waiting for their local web app to start up (and the port requested is not yet responsive) there could be a game for them to play. 

Something similar to the dinosaur game that runs when no internet connection is detected. Maybe even a re-skin of that game?

This would improve millions of developer lives the world over.

Removing Internals>Network as this is, unfortunately, not a net stack issue.

Please triage.

There are currently no plans to extend the offline dinosaur game to other network error pages. Sorry!
