I built a tiny galactic ant farm. Hit Start, nudge the time slider, and watch three cultures wake up in a spiral galaxy, crawl from Tribal to Interstellar, and sketch glowing routes as they colonize nearby stars. There’s no “win” here—just an observatory. Zoom/pan around, click stars to see who claimed them, and open each civ’s card to track their age and progress (with little epoch thumbnails). I wanted a toy that asks: what happens when distance, time, and tech pace are the only rules? Some runs explode outward, others stalemate, some stall in dust lanes. Reset to reshuffle the seeds and see a new story draw itself—right in your browser, vanilla JS + Canvas.

- Move canvas with LMB & mouse wheel to zoom. Click the individual stars as to get more info.

Enjoy :)
