Instructions

Procedurally generates random symbols. For each symbol, the Artist sprite draws one quadrant of the symbol by connecting four points to each other in a random manner. A random axis of symmetry is decided, and the original quadrant is mirrored along that axis. The process is repeated for the remaining quadrants. 10,000+ unique symbols can be generated in this way. Space Bar generates a page of symbols. X toggles the customization settings, which include symbol size, pen size, number of rows and columns, color scheme (light mode/dark mode), and average simplicity level of the generated symbols. You can also turn on the auto toggle to continuously generate pages of symbols. Set the auto toggle higher for a slower generation rate. Set it to zero to turn off automatic generation.

Description

Unfortunately, the Scratch pen tool makes the symbols look very rough and pixel-y. I think I started working on a Vector version that would be much smoother, but never finished it. Inspired from a post by u/Sladix on r/ProceduralGeneration.
