GENUARY Day 8: Create a generative metropolis.

Wanted to have more fun with this, I might have to revisit this later! More shapes, some shinkansens flying around, etc...

Found a super cool reference on archive.org:

This is a (very slight) extension of last year's Genuary20 (Architecture) prompt, which I based on the skyline in the old QBasic Gorillas game. This year, it gets extended to "3D" with layers of buildings, scaled and "misted" toward the back. And stars in the sky. Give me enough genuaries, and maybe I'll eventually call this one finished...

It's perhaps a visual cliché (or trope?) at this point but this is the first time I coded up an infinitely scrolling neon city.

However I feel it's lacking something—a soundtrack using 80's synthesizers

Genuary 2026 Day 8: "A City. Create a generative metropolis."

I did this circa 1998 as a ray-tracing experiment.
