About this build 🧪
This is a science-fair style diorama of the water cycle, rendered entirely in the browser with scalable vector art — no images, no game engine. Every texture (the felt sun, cotton-ball clouds, mossy hills and cardboard box) is drawn with SVG filters and gradients.
Everything you see is alive: rain falls and splashes, the stream and river flow downhill, vapor rises off the warm lake, trees and grass sway with the wind slider, birds wheel overhead, fish surface, and a rabbit and deer wander the moss. Switch to night to find fireflies and stars.
