Apple Game Frameworks and Technologies: Val's revenge background doesn't fill screen

Title: Apple Game Frameworks and Technologies: Val’s revenge background doesn’t fill screen (page 163)

OK, I’m stumped… I’ve been through the instructions several times and double/triple/… checked everything, but when I run the game in the “iPhone 11 Pro Max” Simulator, the background does not fill the screen.

(Xcode Version 12.3 (12C33))

Did some searching around and found references to the storyboard Controller Presentation, and the view content mode, but I’ve changed these (to the point I don’t recall what their original values were), all to no effect.

Any clue what I may have wrong?
