How it feels

A generative art playground that feels both calming and subtly unnerving as procedurally created visuals and music drift without goals or rules.

What players say

Players call it a graphical toy or glorified screen saver rather than a game. They enjoy tweaking sliders to generate random surreal spacescapes and soundscapes, often comparing it to a kaleidoscope or fractal simulator for psychedelic use.
