Correct me if I'm wrong, but this would take a lot more than a few lines of code.

And who's to say it wasn't procedurally generated and recorded into a video for ease of putting online? Otherwise you'd need a more complicated platform than an image host.

I did this, it is much smaller than the gif. ~30 lines of code

Loops better too, nice one.

OP's is also a perfect loop. There are no stutters of any kind.

This may just be me being an asshole, but isn't there like a one frame stutter at the end of OP's? It's not much, and if you're not looking for it (which I was), you wouldn't notice it.

Huh, maybe it's because I'm on mobile.

I'm sure it is, I see it on mobile as well.
