Another mod of the drippy demo. It is more randomized, there are more colors, and it uses coroutines under the hood. It is more like paint that dries out with time.

Try it out here:

Made a jump and fall animation. Took some remembering of algebra.

Block destruction logic, and even a dropping animation. Took some effort for sure.

Oh, and I should upload GIF as a video for it to play, I see.

Took me long enough. I have no clue how to make it more appealing, I'm no artist. But I'm satisfied with the overall mechanics.

Found a way to make the animation seamless. It involves some black magic. Or rather, mathematics, which work for a reason beyond my comprehension.

A more laminar setting, with less turbulence and chaos.

An example with way more particles. I kinda went overboard, Blender crashed at some point. And to me it looks a bit too chaotic.

Super-ionizer. Or... whatever

And hexagons, pretty good too!

And squares, much better

Decided to try this effect with other shapes. I simply decreased the number of edges. Here are triangles, and it doesn't look too good, because they flicker.

I've managed to make the effect less abrupt while keeping the mesh smooth. I still don't know all the intricacies of geometry nodes. Some things under the hood are quite obscure.

Found a way to make the original mesh smooth. It required to make only one additional link in geometry nodes. So simple! Although, the effect seems to have become a bit faster or something. Oh well, looks alright too.

A satisfying abstract animation made with geometry nodes. It really feels like programming with nodes.
