Features
- Added explosions, with key press L. - Added settings for explosions on the left panel
Other
- Changed audio library under the hood, should not cause any visible changes
A fairly large refactor was done to enable future changes and improvements. But some visible updates.

Hi all, whoever plays my game :). I'm just learning here, and wanted to update & keep improving the look and feel of the game. I'm trying to make it a bit clearer to you all what this app is. An experience. Art. A toy.

Visual Update
- New logo, - New ui colors - New splash image & default map look
Fixes
- Clearing will now clear instantly, even if in tracing mode - Pausing will pause the paths in tracing mode also, so you can explore the visuals better
MATERIALS
Added plain ice and a fun water on wall sand. Removed empty from default key bindings, so don't forget the quick key E for that.
CHANGES
Slight Increase in pressure force to push liquid types a bit further apart
BUGS
Fixed default map (new map) not loading graviton image
FEATURES
You can now draw lines & toggle shapes when pressing CTRL (+T). You can also select which shape is being used in the left panel. Use also SHIFT + T to toggle between rectangle and circular shape for the brush. This also changes the line shape!
FIXES
Fixed holes in the ellipse
OTHER
Time was also spent to automate deployment to steam to speed up development time :)
Features
- Add functions to modify (add) forces to cells enabling pushing / pulling materials - Undo & Redo up to 50 steps when paused (with canvas snapshots)
Bugs
- Fix bug when stepping once when saved in paused mode - Clear preview image (overlay for shapes & images) when paused - Fix other smaller bugs
Other
- Reduce steam density (example material) - Update docs
Now you can preview what you draw with a shape over mouse (Shift) Also: - Add quick key to adjust radius & shape thickness (shift + scroll) - Fix minor bugs See key guide
- Add scrollable key binds - Add search bars to sand searches - Improve startup load time
- Add Mirror Draw Mode - More quick keys - UI improvements - Debug color modes - Link to key guide in settings - Documentation updates
Adds shape draw with Ctrl + Left Mouse. Draw rectangular or circular shapes of sand with given thickness settings
- Add description for sand - Improve how copy paste rule nodes works (center to graph area) - Don't apply button bind shift (alternate keys) when writing to a text box - Fix crash when opening a new map and non-existing sand is selected
- Fixed zooming sometimes offsetting the positions of nodes - Fixed some function nodes size expanding too much when zooming out
Graviton has been redesigned to allow full customization of sand materials and to enable more fun play, but also art creation. - Programmable sand is now possible, with lots of examples - Better image drag & drop / import - New UI + key bindings - Calmer background music - Gif recording - Liquids - Various physics settings - Much more... Usage guide found here: https://docs.gravitongame.art/. Unfortunately though, mac development is on hold due to limitations
