This is an exceptionally cool automaton I haven't seen before. It's gorgeous, runs well, and the music fits really well.
The drag interaction to change the weighting is great, but I'd love just a little note on the directionality of the matrix, otherwise you'd only need an upper or lower triangular matrix.
I think there could be more zoom states, as it is currently fairly binary.
Hey Lalaith, thanks for the feedback. The force matrix is asymmetrical so it unfortunately can't be reduced to a triangular matrix, currently the columns represent the force on the colour by the other colours, but there's nothing in the UI that indicates that. I'm still figuring out how best to articulate the concept.

This is a weird quirk of the web build and the way Bevy computes scroll amounts, I've implemented a fix now. Please note panning has moved to right click to accommodate particle brushes coming in a new version.

Stunning, the patterns this thing can make, I spent 10 minutes watching a jelly fish formation just float around like it was a the cell stage of spore
cool concept
cool
