Lilambd Worlds - Free Sampler

Every fact is computed by simulation code. Names, myths, story seeds and the world bible are assembled from those records by template code.

Ten simulated fictional planets by Lilambd Crossing. This free sampler contains:

• lilambd-worlds-021-hibe/ - one complete planet (Hibe): all tables, 8 maps, 720x360 16-bit heightmap, GeoTIFF, world bible, 96 checkable questions. CC BY 4.0.
• previews/ - the other nine planets: cover, globe, physical / biome / political maps, planet parameters, consistency checks, every myth (English and Japanese), and the full README of each, so you can see exactly what is in the full sets.
• atlas_contact_sheet.png, atlas_index.csv - all ten worlds at a glance.

Every planet comes out of the same simulation chain: tectonic plates -> mountains and volcanic arcs -> river erosion -> monthly sunlight from the axial tilt (or a fixed star) -> winds, rain shadows -> rivers that add up exactly -> biomes and plant growth -> animal populations by Damuth's and Kleiber's laws -> 3,000 years of peoples, states, wars, droughts, eruptions and sea crossings -> languages that split by sound laws -> names chosen from facts -> myths and story seeds written from the event records. Nothing is written by a text generator, so the numbers, the maps and the stories never contradict each other. Each world ships with checks.csv: 11 consistency tests, all passed.
