About walstad loom
walstad loom is a living tank you watch more than you play. A 3D voxel aquascape runs through a palette-quantize shader so everything reads as pixel art, while plants, fish, shrimp, and snails interact in a Walstad-style food web underneath. Stock a preset or build your own mix. Feed the tank, follow a creature, take photos, timelapse a bloom crash. The ecosystem self-balances over a few minutes — algae spikes when nutrients run hot, snails and shrimp graze it back, fry hide in the stems. Early access, very open to feedback and making this the best lofi-background aquarium experience possible. Features Generative Walstad ecosystem — plants, fish, shrimp, snails in a closed nutrient loop Pixel-art look from a live 3D sim — palette-quantized voxel tank Stock presets or build your own mix Feed creatures, follow individuals, take photos, timelapse bloom cycles Relaxing sandbox — watch equilibrium settle over minutes
