A demonstration of how drag-and-drop modular block code fits together.

StarLogo Nova is an agent-based game and simulation programming environment that combines an easy-to-use blocks-based programming language with a powerful simulation engine and 3D renderer.

Blocks-based programming allows for ease of use while still maintaining simulation power and strength.

Create over 10,000 agents to represent different components of a system and their interactions with extensive model complexity support.

Join thousands of students, educators, and more in creating your own complex simulations and games!
