Nebula
~2017-2018
This is a lua application exported to HTML and javascript with love.js. Since it is not meant to be used that way, resizing the window could cause some display issues. Updated the 6 July 2021 for HTML and javascript export.
Nebula is a simplistic simulation of gravity. You can add objects that will then get attracted between them. The filled circles move, the empty ones don't. There is a lot of options to change gravity, the size of the objects, the interaction with the window borders, etc.
Controls :
- [TAB] Show/hide menu
- [SPACEBAR] Show/hide help and controls
- [Left click] Place an object affected by gravity
- [Right click] Place an object not affected by gravity
- [Scroll wheel] Change gravity force
- [CTRL + scroll wheel] Change speed loss
- [Delete] Remove an object not affected by gravity
- [Backspace] Remove an object affected by gravity
- [P] Pause the simulation
- [F11] Fullscreen
- [1] Objects attracted between them
- [2] Objects attracted by the mouse
- [3] Speed of object is limited
- [4] Window border: Go to the other side of the window / Bounce on the window / Get out of the window
- [5] Object sizes: small / medium / big / huge
Made in lua with LÖVE 2D.
This project has been partially réimplemented using C++ and Cuda: Nebula GPU.
