Glomularus is an exploration in generative, artificial life forms. The project is an extension of my Protobyte series, begun in 2004.

Driven by Verlet icosahedra and responsive tendrils, Glomulari live in a spherical virtual ecosystem (V-eco) enhanced through user interaction.

Interaction:

Mouse/Trackpad: drag -> camera rotation drag + CMD/CTR -> camera pan scroll wheel/pinch -> camera zoom

Key Input: 1-9: add acceleration -, +: reduce | increase V-eco sphere radius f, g: reduce | increase fog p: screen capture

Tip: To decrease creature acceleration, reduce V-eco sphere radius

Note: Please post your favorite Glomularus screen captures TW: @iragreenberg IG: @greenberg.ira
