Simathon 02

Star systems

Build a star system you can fly through. Real gravity, real starlight, from an empty file in a week.

When

01
Setup
Python, Git, and an AI-assisted editor. Fifteen minutes, done before the session starts.
02
The live session
One hour. We cover the physics you need, then build a working simulation together, on screen, from an empty file.
03
Build week
Seven days to make your own. Chat stays open the whole time. Two optional checkpoints on the night keep you moving.
04
Judging
Scientific accuracy, visual design, and creativity. Every entrant gets written feedback on their work.
