How it moves
Koi seen from above, drawn as a grid of 14px character cells on one 2D canvas. Each fish is a spine of 16 segments that follows its head, so the body bends as a swimmer's does. Cells inside a body are small tinted squares whose glyph (· : + x % #) follows how deep inside the body they sit; fins are filled cells and strokes; a soft halo glows around each fish. The fish steer around the sample text and flee the pointer, which leaves rings of dots spreading out where it moves.

Inside the prompt
Koi seen from above, drawn as a grid of 14px character cells on one 2D canvas. Each fish is a spine of 16 segments that follows its head, so the body bends as a swimmer's does. Cells inside a body are small tinted squares whose glyph (· : + x % #) follows how deep inside the body they sit; fins are filled cells and strokes; a soft halo glows around each fish. It fills one full screen behind a short sample headline and line, and runs straight away: the first frame is drawn before the page is shown, so a phone visitor sees it moving within the first second. The fish steer around the sample text and flee the pointer, which leaves rings of dots spreading out where it moves.
