Neat Particles Free Download

Neat particles is a small sandbox game all about seeing, generating and toying with neat particle patterns and behaviors!Complexity from SimplicityNeat particles generates particle behaviors by combining and randomizing simple behaviors.

For example one modifier is "turn by X degree every Y time"

Even alone this results in some interesting things, 90 degree turns create a square, larger Y make a larger square, smaller faster turns generate circles, etc. If the particles get faster over time the square gets wider and wider creating a spiral pattern.By default 8 modifiers are randomly picked from 31, with the numbers of those modifiers also additionally randomized.

This results in a huge variety of different looking and different feeling patterns and behaviors, which I found generally enjoyable to look at and interact with.Designed RandomnessWhile randomness is essential, the modifiers and their parameters have been carefully designed to reduce meaningless sameness or unpatterned noise. The behaviors and patterns are supposed to feel actually unique.
