🫧 Soap Bubble Film: Thin-Film Drainage & Interference (2D)

A 2D canvas simulation of soap-bubble thin-film physics: gravity drains each film over time, and as it thins, interference between light reflected off its two surfaces shifts the visible color until the film hits critical thickness and pops.
