What a fascinating project. It looks a real labor of love, and I wish I understood it more deeply. I've been making my own visualization sandboxes like this to explore configuration spaces and groups - but for much simpler, more intuitive physical systems.
I went down a few rabbit holes on the site - is this program also written in Basic?
Yes, specifically the PowerBasic console compiler version 4 (later versions don’t do animation nearly as well). The PowerBasic compilers are no longer being sold and the company appears to be defunct. Anyway, you can do a lot with a good BASIC compiler.
