I won't explain the random jitter as that should be pretty easy to mimic.

Think of it as 2 "snakes", starting at the center (so their starting points are touching) and moving to the bottom.

Every time it changes, a cell will: mimic the color of the cell in front of it (so 1 step closer to the center starting point). If there is no cell behind it, then it will switch to the next color in the sequence

And for something like this, you can just ignore all gridpoints after one has turned black, as the following ones will all just stay black

You can create a function that creates a new cell based on the parameters he gave you

Then use that function to do the procedural animation

You can keep track of cells through a table or a variable named “lastCell” should do

You can do a lil learning, believe it or not you don’t have to be good to make cool shit

Do you maybe want me to write a little structure for your goal to help get you started?
