[h2Lottery Simulator

The new experimental site uses the infinite tournament format, advancing lottery balls through stages until a champion is crowned. All balls can compete in any competitions, like teams in Forever World Cup Simulator. A pseudo Halogen-style lottery machine is used as an arena where balls fight for the exit. All ball movement is powered by a physics engine without magnetic interference.

Currently, there are two competitions - American 69+26 Lottery Cup and 2026 World Cup finals.
