Colorpool 0.3

Colorpool is a simulation playground offering a plethora of interactive features to manipulate and enrich whirls of vivid colors. Users can:

• Utilize various touch effects, like drawing colorful lines, spirals, or creating zoom fractals.
• Integrate video from their camera to develop intriguing filters.
• Trigger whirls to cascade by rotating their device.
• Select from a diverse range of color themes and post-simulation effects.
• Pause the simulation to layer multiple effects simultaneously.
• Capture screenshots directly to their device.

Colorpool is an ad-free app that operates seamlessly on both phones and tablets. Larger screens tend to deliver more dynamic visual effects due to pixel contribution. Inspired by the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, Colorpool's algorithm is believed to draw from Nitori Kawashiro's work, although a verified source is elusive.

Caution: The app includes flashing lights and intricate color patterns that may not be suitable for individuals with photosensitive epilepsy.

Try focusing on a single whirl during normal simulation runtime, then pause and observe an optical illusion as your brain anticipates the movement of peripheral whirls.
