### 5/5 — Simply stunning!

*2011-07-15, version 1.06*

Your iPad needs this app. A fully interactive and customisable eyegasm. It's the finest of it's kind. The physics are spot on, with a diverse set of parameters that can be applied to each individual particle. Create anything from fluid dynamics to self propelled spinning galaxies. I can't recommend this app enough. Apple should bundle this in with every iPad, to show just what it's capable of. It really is that good!

### 5/5 — OMG THE BEST APP EVER

*2011-06-07, version 1.06*

Some people call me a full fledged hippy hippies peace and creativity those are the two things embroidered in this app great app for a guy or girl young or old just be sure to read the instructions or else you think it's like the worst app ever

### 5/5 — Good but needs UPDATE

*2011-02-28, version 1.06*

This is a great app for who loves gravity, drag items and create motions, awesome but its sad that there was no update, i dont think its hard to think about creating new features and create more objects to move.

### 5/5 — Amasing App

*2010-11-19, version 0*

The app is well worth the money. It has stunning graphics. The app's 20 interactive levels isn't just all the fun, but the scene creator is awesome. I've already created lots of scenes, but it would be better in scene creator if you could set visual and physics for the orb(s) you are placing instead of setting them for the entire scene. Overall, it is a great app, and I recommend you get it. For people who don't know how to bring up  the menu, you tap 2 fingers on the screen, one after another.

### 3/5 — Cool but...

*2010-11-16, version 0*

It's a cool application that can produce great results after much practice.  The document ion is REALLY bad and that's a shame since users would be happier if they understood how to use this app better and faster.

### 4/5 — Beautiful

*2010-10-24, version 0*

This is a lovely app filled with mellow interactivity which explodes on the screen. Creating lightscapes, the user is drawn into a zone of creativity that becomes almost hypnotic.

### 4/5 — It's OK :)

*2010-09-25, version 0*

This app is fun to play with and great for creating backgrounds for your ipad, the only thing is that it's very similar to line art which is free and you don't have all the annoying options to set up each time so if your like me and love line art and want to move up then get this :)

### 5/5 — Great application well worth the $$$

*2010-09-24, version 0*

3 people accidentally pressed the one star button. I don't know who would think this app is only worthy of one star. They probably didn't know how to use it. This app is fantastic and mesmerizing. Keep up the good work.

### 5/5 — art in motion

*2010-09-15, version 0*

love this app! if you can get into lava lamps then you'll get into this too!

### 5/5 — Fantastic! Exactly what I was looking for

*2010-09-10, version 0*

This app is fantastic. I was looking for something that my son could use for interaction, visual tracking, hand eye co-ordination and that was either visually soothing or visually exciting.  This app was all of these things and more.  With quite a number of preinstalled visual templates to choose from, as well as the ability to have endless fun creating your own, this app will not disappoint!

### 5/5 — beautiful, addictive, meditative

*2010-08-27, version 0*

I love this app. I can spend hours just whooshing my fingers around my iPad and creating the most beautiful art. It's really made me appreciate the tactile nature of the touch screen, and think a little bit differently about how art works -- not just a static thing to look at or even a pre-recorded animation to watch, but something infinitely variable and at my command. I have not seen another app like it, not even close. Congratulations on a beautiful product!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-09-17, version 1.06*

Looks like it was written by and for a C-64

### 1/5 — Art?

*2013-09-06, version 1.06*

Yawn. And what is with the black hole?

### 1/5 — Last updated THREE YEARS AGO!!!

*2013-09-06, version 1.06*

Shame on you!

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE

*2010-09-24, version 0*

Horrible HORRIBLE app! Do not waste your money on it! Bad quality, ugly and just a bad app. You've been warned.

### 1/5 — Confused

*2010-09-23, version 0*

I watched the video and tried every thing on it but all I ended up with was a blank screen 

Hmmm

### 1/5 — What a waste...

*2010-09-01, version 0*

complete waste of time and money. The software took me ten minutes to figure out how to use. And even then it was pointless. DO NOT BUY

### 1/5 — Don't waste your money

*2010-08-23, version 0*

Everything is blurry.  There are much better apps like this that don't strain your eyes.  I looked at the screen captures and saw that they were blurry but I thought it must just have been poor screen captures, but no that's really the way it looks.

### 2/5 — hard to use

*2010-11-04, version 0*

This app has a pretty poor UI, and hence it is difficult to make anything really cool. The help system does not even tell you how to exit edit mode, or at least it is not at the front of the help system. Although a great idea it needs some more work.

### 2/5 — Not so great for a $3 app

*2010-09-04, version 0*

I would expect a little more quality in a $3 app the graphics are too fuzzy and the effects were low quality, I have some free particle visualizers that are better.Please Upgrade

### 2/5 — Saving grace

*2010-08-20, version 0*

It creates beautiful imagery, but what's the point if you can't save the action?

*2016-05-11, version 1.06*

Awesome. So much fun.

### 5/5 — Very creative app I love!!!

*2016-01-25, version 1.06*

If you love being creative & playing around w/bright pretty colors & more this app is for you! It's worth the few dollars! I love it & can't believe all the cool things you can do with/this app if u just take the time to play around w/it.

### 5/5 — JUST FLAT OUT BEAUTIFUL

*2014-04-18, version 1.06*

Gorgeous visuals that have motion, you control the visuals and the motion.  
       This is the type of app that must be experienced, words don't do it justice.

### 5/5 — It's like I'm God

*2013-09-08, version 1.06*

God of the orbs! Since they do everything I command them to!

                                              {Note}

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-09-05, version 1.06*

Awesome custom scene creator thingy.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Wonders

*2012-10-02, version 1.06*

A wonderful, colorful and challenging toy that keeps our two year old grandson transfixed to the iPad screen. His reactions to this app tells us, it's not only for adults but kids of the 21st century love it too!

### 5/5 — Great app!!! 👍👍👍

*2012-05-19, version 1.06*

This app is soooo good I recommend it to everyone ! Also if you add a  little column where you can see other people's creations would be beyond great! 😃😃😃

### 5/5 — A very interesting App

*2011-12-04, version 1.06*

I have to say it is brilliant, but if you could make like slide shows of the scenes you create would be awesome... I don't know if the creator will be throwing in more updates.. but I have to say you can make good scenes after couple of hours of work with it. It's nice and well worth the money if it had a few extra features... like different movements  of the particles in the scene depending on how many fingers you touch the screen with.... other than that it is a good app and interesting, fun to play with it especially while listening to some trance track :P .

### 5/5 — Psychedelic

*2011-11-17, version 1.06*

Great, excellent!!!!!!!!
A real nice job... Perfect

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2011-10-20, version 1.06*

This app is mesmerizing and deeply addicting. Definitely my favorite particle effect toy. The still screenshots don't do justice to the trippy dynamic graphics. I  have spent way too much time flinging glowing bubbles and molding gobs of light. Just playing with the preset settings is worth the price... But being able to custom build your own effects is especially rich and rewarding. All in all, an iPad must-own. Good job guys!
