Sänd

Sänd is a falling sand simulation made in Love2D. It's inspired by other falling sand games such as:

• Sandspiel by Max Bittker (his source code helped a lot)

• Orb.farm by Max Bittker

• The Powder Toy

• wxSand

• Powder Game

• Noita

How to run:

• Download latest version of Love2D from https://love2d.org/
• Create a shortcut of the Love2D executable and place it somewhere like your desktop (located in Program Files/LOVE)
• Download this repository and extract the Sand-master folder to the same place as the Love2D shortcut
• Drag and drop the Sand-master folder onto the Love2D shortcut and it should run the game

If there's any errors when you try to run it, take a screenshot and create a new issue.

Controls:

• Left Click: Paint currently selected particle type
• Right Click(hold): Show the particle selection wheel
• Left Bracket ([): Multiply brush size by -2
• Right Bracket (]): Multiply brush size by 2
• P: Pause
• Left Alt: Show debug info (FPS, Particle count)
• Mouse Wheel: Increase brush size, switch particle (while particle selection wheel is shown)

ToDo:

• Add multithreading
• GPU simulation
• UI
• use FFI to define data structures in C for particles
