This is a really fun toy. The visuals are a nice blend of ambiguous and concrete; this is also a good tool for quickly brainstorming or prototyping world building ideas.
A nice addition would be the ability to remove land/add water as well.
Thanks for the kind words. I've added a note to the github gist releasing the code under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. Might not be a typical license for software, but the minified cart is already under that license on the Lexaloffle BBS so I think it makes sense.
Thanks, I would have loved to add sound but since this was made for a jam with 1kb code limit and no pre-made assets, it would have meant cutting features and the sound would have ended up pretty basic anyway. If I ever make a more full-featured version it would definitely have sound. Thanks for checking it out!

this colour palette is so beautiful! I’ve never seen such vibrant water in pico8
So cool! Thanks a bunch @sparsegamedev for sharing the commented source code, it really helps others learn from your wisdom. :)
Could you add an open source license to the code? It’s as simple as adding one commented line stating something like:
This code by Woflox is shared under the GNU GPLv3 licenseOr something like that. Thanks again!

Pretty cool. It would be nice if it had sound, but as it stands, it is pretty cool.
