GitHub scientific reference only: vidarsko/ComFiT, a computational field-theory toolkit supporting active nematics and topological defect tracking. 16 stars observed November 8, 2026; MIT license verified; maintained October 4, 2026. Commit 2c1f947553879f367ef84fb072c87cbddc22f2b2. ComFiT is not the source code of this original game.

Recent primary inspiration: Spatial Activity Patterning and Topological Defect Transport in Acoustically Energized Active Liquid Crystals, July 2026. The puzzle computes exact discrete nematic winding. It does not simulate active flow, acoustic forcing, or a physical device.

Artwork generated for this game with the built-in GPT image model: copper-framed mulberry silk, pearl director seed, warm sun charm, cool triskelion charm and still pearl. Optimized and bundled locally as WebP. The generated pieces are the interactive directors, current defects, target clues and collection petals. Optional sound is synthesized locally. No external runtime libraries, fonts or assets.
