2D Galaxy Generator Demo 1

This is the first demo video of my current project, a 2D galaxy simulator/generator. This video showcases the current build of the program including the basic generator, morphing abilities, and the ability to collapse the galaxy into itself. NOTE: I am not sure about the accuracy of my physics, I have never studied astrophysics, so my ideas may be off. Also Note: The quality of this video is very low compared to the quality of the actual program. Song name: 24. "Best of Times" from the World of Goo soundtrack.

wow, any chance I could get a peek at the source code of this? I'm trying to do something similar in a game of mine.

@Ehal256 Well, it depends on what language / program you're using. This is made in GML in Game Maker 8.0

I'm not using GML, but the algorithm should work in any language...
