Hey everyone, I made this little visualiser which generates points in the Lorenz Attractor using standard values. Feedback welcome, I'm quite interested in ways of making the depth effect smoother or more interesting if anyone has cool ideas.
Thanks to Zep for pico8 :)

Oh cool, I've been meaning to try one myself.
A friend did one way back in the 90's and I added a static image of a sphere to each plotted point. With some z-buffering, it eventually produced a neat solid(ish) object with lighting and even phong-like highlights.
It'd be tricky on pico-8, with lack of memory for a z-buffer (I guess you could use tables, or sort the points before drawing), low resolution, and very few colors, but it might work.
Minor point: color 13 works well between colors 5 and 6.
