Storm Lens 2D — Canvas Particle Vortex Field

A flat-canvas companion to the 3D Storm Lens: the same lens/storm/glow force field drives thousands of 2D particles into a swirling, self-scattering vortex around a glowing lens core.

This is a 2D canvas port of the 3D Storm Lens field: the same lens-pull, storm-swirl and turbulence terms drive flat particles instead of a WebGL point cloud, so the mechanic is easier to read while staying true to the original forces.

⚙ Under the hood

Particles orbit a central lens core under a combined pull, swirl and sine/cosine turbulence force; the Lens, Storm and Glow sliders scale each term, and pointer input adds a local attraction force.
