Splash cursor

A real fluid simulation, running on WebGL.

The heaviest effect in the plugin and the most striking: the pointer pushes dye through a velocity field. Keep the radius low and the ribbon stays thin and smooth; open it up and the whole page fills with colour. Radius, force and the colour set are Pro.

Where it earns its keep: Launch pages and dark hero sections that need one unforgettable moment.
