Equilibrium Flow

Equilibrium Flow is a tactical agricultural resource routing and balancing dashboard built in a rigid, low-fidelity polyhedral hardware aesthetic. Players manage multi-tiered irrigation networks by adjusting slider valves and setting discrete directional routing relays to guide weighted fluid resource streams across an asymmetric balancing grid. The simulation calculates fluid movement using custom integer math pipelines and stepped pressure friction algorithms, challenging players to optimize throughput and clear channels without triggering grid overloads. Featuring a simulated CRT cathode screen display complete with persistent horizontal scanlines, low-fps rendering skips, and hardware diagnostic readouts, the application acts as a vintage control terminal. System progression, unlocked retro merit medals, and calibration statistics are saved directly to a simulated memory card data register file. The app includes active configuration mechanics allowing direct tuning of flow variables, rendering velocity, and silo capacities to dynamically alter active simulation constraints.
