    Overview

    Welcome, and thanks for coming by! I hope that you enjoy exploring this small game, and it brings you some calm.

    Growing up, "falling sand" games like this one provided me hours of entertainment and imagination. I want to particularly thank ha55ii's Powder Game as the primary inspiration for sandspiel.

    1. Pause, draw a whole scene, then press play to watch it come to life.
    2. A Cloner copies the first element it touches, so it makes an endless source of water, sand or fire.
