Start
A swollen red-orange star swells in at the cursor, its surface boiling under a hot corona.
Draw
The star pulses as it follows the cursor, shedding a glowing plasma trail that flickers with convection, cooling from white-hot to deep red, and throwing off embers.
Release
The star collapses, then blows in a flash: a shock ring and an expanding nebula shell of ejecta race out, leaving a tiny neutron star whose two pulsar beams sweep round for a moment before fading.
