What would be the eventual process to make something like this decentralized so as to ensure no single party controls the server that (if I understand correctly) would set the day’s puzzles and handle verification?

Wouldn't setting the puzzle for the day need to be somewhat centralized, because otherwise everyone, or a lot of people, would already know the solution/not get to enjoy the puzzle?
Maybe a less on-chain but still relatively decentralized solution for long intervals between puzzles is a chainlink VRF oracle.

I never noticed this in the demo
It's about 24 seconds in. Look at the bottom left corner.
