CGWindowListCreateImage was deprecated in macOS 14 (Sonoma) and returns nil/blank frames on current systems, so the classifier never receives an image and the app stops detecting the game state entirely. Changes: - Capture via SCScreenshotManager on macOS 14+, with a fallback to the old CGWindowListCreateImage API on macOS 11-13. - Match the game window tolerantly: the iPad-on-Mac build reports its window name as "AmongUs" (no space) rather than "Among Us". - Update @published state on the main thread, since capture now runs on a background Task. - Skip (continue) tiny helper windows instead of returning out of the scan.

On macOS 14 (Sonoma) and later, AmongKey no longer detects the game state — the status stays on "Nothing" and no controls work. The cause is CGWindowListCreateImage, which Apple deprecated in macOS 14; on current systems it returns nil/blank frames, so the CoreML classifier never receives an image and gamestate is never updated.
(Reproduced on an M2 Mac running macOS 14.5 with the current iPad-on-Mac build of Among Us.)
