What Neon Flames actually is

Jonas Wagner's particle sandbox turns cursor movement into a stream of glowing embers that drift, cool and fade out against black. Sliders control the colour range, particle count and gravity, and a save button drops whatever you made out as an image.

Why it is worth your time

Trails keep evolving for several seconds after you lift the mouse, so a quick flick leaves a shape you did not quite draw yourself.
