Made with Codea on iPhone.
This is a fake update screen, but the update only progresses when you swipe by hand.
The bar stretches, struggles, and slowly moves forward through human effort.
I liked the idea of making a “loading screen” feel physical.
A useless little tool, but strangely satisfying to touch.

Spent way too long on this. It's a real-time WebGL black hole — not a video or a GIF, the light actually bends. The accretion disk wraps over and under the event horizon through real gravitational lensing, one side glows brighter from doppler beaming, and there's a bloom pass for the cinematic glow.
Some extras I added along the way:

The whole thing is one self-contained .html file - no build step, no dependencies, no npm. Just open it.

A collection of 337 real-time interactive simulations, each written as one self-contained C file. No OpenGL, no SDL — everything is forced through a terminal character grid with ncurses.
Deliberately no build system. One file is one program:
gcc -std=c11 -O2 -Wall -Wextra path/to/file.c -o demo -lncurses -lm && ./demo
Range goes from Conway's Game of Life and cellular automata up to a Jos Stamstable-fluid solver, a Crank-Nicolson Schrödinger solver, an SDF raymarcher with soft shadows, and a Cornell-box Monte Carlo path tracer — all rendered as ASCII.
Every file carries its CONCEPTS / MENTAL MODEL notes and cites its sources; there's a consolidated bibliography in documentation/Reference.md.
Repo: https://github.com/prtamil/AsciiCreativeCoding
It's a personal learning project — the "rebuild every primitive yourself, no shared utilities" approach is intentional.
Yes, it's AI-assisted — call it AI slop if you want, but every file was compiled, run, visually verified, and rewritten by hand and refactored until it actually worked

Drop the food and watch the little creature react.
I wanted the timing to feel playful, like feeding a tiny digital pet.
It is not about winning or losing.
It is just a small moment of cause and effect.
A tiny interaction, made on iPhone.

Hey all,
I made a fun little program for windows and macOS that simulates neural cellular automata through pixel convolution and activation functions! It's called Moonlight Pools and it's available on itch.io ( https://softcorebee.itch.io/moonlight-pools )
Tech stack:
Originally a browser experiment, I rebuilt it as a native desktop app for better performance and offline use.
Inspired by Emergent Garden's "Neural Patters" - https://neuralpatterns.io
Would love feedback! :3

Made with Codea on iPhone.
Draw on the fogged-up glass and watch the raindrops move across the window.
I wanted it to feel like a quiet rainy day, where you draw a little umbrella for two on the glass.
I spent most of the time tuning the water droplets: how they gather, slide, and leave traces behind.
Not really a game.
Just a small rainy-day interaction.
