Awesome Chained Particle Program
Submitted by thomas on Fri, 04/16/2010 - 00:56
Move your mouse around. Try left clicking and right clicking. Try fiddling with the slider on the left side. To change the color of the particles, click the box next to "Base Color". This program works by first creating thousands of particles. Then it puts the particles in a list and constantly accelerates each particle to the next particle in the list. After the particles are given a little bit of friction, a chain is formed! The particle at the front of the chain is accelerated to your cursor. When you left click, the particles are given a velocity towards your mouse. When you right click, the particles are given random velocities. Certain combinations of the slider settings on the left can create really cool effects.
