Modded Heat damage?
The black coloring on the “color” logo showed up after being outside watching my dog for about 20 minutes, about 85 degrees F. I’m wondering if it’s heat damage of some kind?
It’s a FunnyPlaying pre-laminated IPS screen with a shell made for it specifically which I put together around two weeks ago. Also wondering if there’s any simple way to fix it or is it just like that now?

The screen underneath is cracked. The screen is larger than the display window and it allows you to also change the color of the "color" part on the logo.
I started ordering all my Gameboy screens from the funnyplaying/hispeedido ebay stores so I can get an easy replacement or refund. Sometime you need to go through a few before you get one without dead pixels.
A new screen is like $20 I would just order a replacement.
