Geyser Eruption

A simulation of a geothermal geyser that periodically erupts jets of water and steam. A timed build-up/eruption/calm cycle drives a GPU-friendly particle system: thousands of water points arc upward under gravity while a separate cloud of steam points drifts and dissipates above the vent, lit by a pulsing point light that flares during eruption.

• 6,000 water particles reset and launched each eruption pulse
• Up to 3,000 steam particles with density-based draw range
• Additive-blended points simulate glowing spray and vapor
• Procedural rocky terrain generated from noise-like height function
• Timer-based eruption cycle: build-up, eruption, calm phases
