It's an L System disguised (thinly) as a game! Write the rules and your tree will grow. There is a helpful starter rule provided but see if you can do better.
Warning: LOUD AUDIO!
Controls:
J - hold down to scroll left, tap to change symbol
K - hold down to scroll right, tap to change symbol
Space or click - start the game, start growing the tree, restart
I was just thinking about reworking it to have a play mode where you control the tree as it grows. Sort of writing the axiom as you grow the tree and then letting it rip for a few iterations to see how it develops. Could even continue from where you left off by using the last position on the tree as the starting point for the next one and simply panning and zooming to reset the play field.

I'd love to see a fork later with more general controls. Systems like these are buckets of fun to play with.
I'm also reminded of strugges to get balancing right with AVL trees, haha.
I feel like this game had a great concept, but it was very hard to grasp. Otherwise, I liked the setting.
It was a bit chaotic and couldn't really understand what the different configurations did. RIP headphones indeed
Interesting game, though the growing could be skipable, or at least faster.
