holy shit, I'm so flattered! Thank you for your kind support and encouragement!

It's crazy that it looks okaish right? quaternions, dude. I have implemented them in 3 projects and still have no fucking idea how they work.

Also, you can run it in --quality low if you're struggling with framerate. :)

I can easily check for when motion stops, but checking for when any particular face is both parallel to the floor and at the same level can be computationally expensive, particularly in the dice with more sides. What you're suggesting is likely a good idea, but I wouldn't know how to get probabilities without doing what I just mentioned. I'm sure there's an optimization i can do with this that I can't think of rn.

I didn't have the patience to do it myself bit wanted to see just how complex it would get:

fp32_mul() {
    local a=$1 b=$2
    local sa=$(( (a >> 31) & 1 ))
    local sb=$(( (b >> 31) & 1 ))
    local sign=$((sa ^ sb))

    local ea=$(( (a >> 23) & 0xff ))
    local eb=$(( (b >> 23) & 0xff ))
    local fa=$(( a & 0x7fffff ))
    local fb=$(( b & 0x7fffff ))

    # NaN / infinity / zero handling
    if (( ea == 255 )); then
        if (( fa != 0 )); then
            printf '%08x\n' $((0x7fc00000))
            return
        fi
        if (( eb == 0 && fb == 0 )); then
            printf '%08x\n' $((0x7fc00000))   # inf * 0 = NaN
            return
        fi
        printf '%08x\n' $(((sign << 31) | 0x7f800000))
        return
    fi

    if (( eb == 255 )); then

hahaha you seem to be familiar with the issues I ran across
