About This Software

Discover a unique and fully interactive lava simulator !
Watch eruptions and lava flows across the stunning landscapes of Réunion Island.
This simulation was co-created in 2016 with Eric Chahi, the renowned author of Another World, From Dust, and Paper Beast !

The simulator lets you interact in real time with eruptions in photorealistic, dynamic environments, revealing a wide range of volcanic structures, from lava fields to cones creation !
Create new eruptive fissures, control flow rate, temperature, pressure, and observe the evolution in beautifully rendered 3D landscapes !

The application is powered by a custom-built graphics and physics engine, specifically designed for this simulation and using the incredible computing power of GPUs !
