Part incremental game, part art project. You buy upgrades which alter the hypnotic progression of the circles in the simulation. It's kind of a screen saver that you progress through. The whole process is only a few hours.
Falling sand idle is an incremental game powered by a little physics simulation. Your progression is determined by the interactions of lots of little circles that run into each other. You can make them bigger, smaller, or hotter. You can change the environment they move around in. Eventually, they can eat each other.
