Intro

I attempted to recreate a jiggly jello cube’s physics from CSCI 520. It’s a fun challenge with mass spring systems where one has to balance a cube’s original structure with spring and external forces.

Implementation

Extra fancy stuff:

• Textured cube with hand-drawn texture image (JJK reference)
• Inclined plane collision logic & render
• Customized lighting and material
• Optimized conversion from float to int and avoid float division in external force interpolation
• Interactivity with the cube (drag left mouse anywhere on the screen and the force will apply to the cube)

Demo

Here are some bouncy animations to look at:
