Slime Mold Simulator
A downloadable project for Windows
A Slime Mold Simulator!
1.5 Million agents create pheromone trails, and follow the trails left by others. Each color is a different species and will only react to it's own color. Enjoy this sandbox simulation of the real life organism Physarum Polycephalum!
Controls:
R, G, and B - Draw with those colors, attracting their respective species.
Space - Respawn all agents at your mouse cursor
Sliders - Change the parameters of the simulation.
Further Learning:
If you'd like to learn more about how this simulation works, here's a great video by Sebastian Lague that can give you ideas for patterns to try to make!

Unzip the game files, and launch "Slime Mold Simulation.exe"
Note: There are some cases where dx11 doesn't like integrated graphics and the shaders won't run. If you have the option, try to run this with a dedicated GPU.
