Cherry Blossom Petals in the Wind
This scene depicts sakura petals drifting and falling from stylized cherry trees at night. A large instanced-mesh particle system simulates each petal's descent, combining a steady downward fall with wind-driven horizontal sway and continuous tumbling rotation, then recycles petals back to the treetops once they reach the ground.
- Thousands of petals rendered via a single InstancedMesh for performance
- Wind strength drives sinusoidal horizontal/depth drift per petal
- Each petal tumbles on 3 axes at its own randomized speed and phase
- Blossom clusters use instanced icosahedra on procedurally placed trees
- Live GUI lets you retune petal count, wind, fall speed, and color
