nah they're just basic particles with velocity and acceleration; there's just a few constant forces acting on them!
there's an angular acceleration based on the bar at the top (which is adjusted slightly based on the particle's color) and an attraction to the mouse when clicking dependent on the distance.

Pretty!
Very gorgeous! Reminds me of playing with Uzu on the iPad back in the day
So fascinating to see how they move. Are these boids?

i would LOVE to try to simulate boids in pico-8 though that sounds really fun
I guess if they were boids they would also react to eachother.
Nice work.
