This looks related to (maybe descended from?) Nikita Lisitsa’s particle life project: https://lisyarus.github.io/blog/posts/particle-life-simulati...

I wonder if it's possible to encode self-replication with these building blocks. Like very simple RNA-like molecules that, if given enough time in a "nutrient" rich environment, can create copies of itself.

This looks AMAZING on a 42 inch OLED screen in a completely dark room.

Looks neat. Turned up particle count on my iPhone (webgpu) by about 10x. Whole UI, including OS, became immediately unresponsive for quite some seconds :')

Very cool, but locked to 60FPS on my 120Hz monitor for some reason. Can't find a setting to fix it.

    Which browser? With Firefox, you need to set "layout.frame_rate=120" and "gfx.display.max-frame-rate=120". I'm using a 165Hz monitor on Linux and it works for me after I've set those.

Seems interesting, but with litterally ZERO help and explanations it is basically useless. Fuynny to look at, but not more.

The variety of "creatures" is really mind-blowing. Thanks for sharing

might be a cool way to visualize emergent properties of automata
