hexy

Hexy is a generative art playground inspired by and based on Grant Custer’s Hex and Martin Kleppe’s (t,i,x,y).

instructions

Hexy has a 50×50 grid where each cell is assigned a numerical value by the provided function in the input box. The function has 5 parameters:

function parameters
`i`	time value (increments with each cycle)
`x`	cell x-coordinate
`y`	cell y-coordinate
`cx`	cursor x-coordinate
`cy`	cursor y-coordinate

Internally, it looks like this:

function getValue ({ i, x, y, cx, cy }) {
  const n = // code from the input box is inserted here
  return (Math.abs(n) | 0) % 11
}

A cell’s state is determined by the function output and corresponds to the following:

state	glyph	description
0	void	void cell
1	left	border on the left
2	top	border on top
3	right	border on the right
4	bottom	border on the bottom
5	backslash	diagonal line from top-left to bottom-right corner
6	slash	diagonal line from bottom-left to top-right corner
7	cross	both slashes form an “X”
8	box	all borders (1–4) present
9	crate	a box with an “X”
10	solid	a solid box
