Physarum



At the beginning there was only Chaos...

Physarum is an agent-based simulation inspired by the remarkable behavior of Physarum polycephalum, a unicellular organism capable of solving complex problems without any centralized control. Thousands of simple agents interact within a continuous, borderless field — sensing, turning, and leaving trails behind. From this minimal rule set, mesmerizing, organic structures emerge: branching networks, pulses, voids, waves. What looks like life is built from logic. This simulation is not programmed to draw — it grows.

Features:

Realistic Simulations

Watch emergent patterns unfold, reacting to invisible trails and forming intricate, living geometry.

Visual Customization

Change particle colors and apply various color schemes.

Intuitive Rule Editor

Experiment with agent behavior: sensor angles, movement distance, trail weight, and more.

Therapeutic Vibes

Relax and enjoy the dynamic system you've created.
