Kintsugi Repair Simulator (2D)

Interactive 2D kintsugi simulator: shatter a ceramic bowl, watch the cracks form, then pour molten gold lacquer into the seams and see it fill and harden as the piece is repaired.

This 2D simulator recreates the Japanese art of kintsugi from directly above: a ceramic bowl shatters into a network of jagged cracks, and pouring molten gold lacquer sends it traveling outward along every seam until the whole piece is mended. Adjust how many cracks form and how fast the gold pours, then watch the fill percentage and total seam length climb as the repair unfolds — a hands-on look at how kintsugi turns damage into decoration instead of hiding it.

⚙ Under the hood

Shatter a ceramic bowl and pour molten gold lacquer into the cracks to watch the Japanese art of kintsugi repair unfold in 2D.
