What's New in JellyDazzle
3.6.6
October 13, 2026
Four new fractals — and see the beat. • Neon Mandelbrot: the edge of the Mandelbrot set drawn as glowing filaments — snowflakes, seahorse spirals and minibrot chains, diving and drifting. • Nova: spiral basins where Newton meets Mandelbrot, with island chains of fine filigree. • Multibrot bloom: the Mandelbrot set grows extra folds and back again — a flower opening and closing. • Clifford silk: strange attractors woven like silk, every strand coloured by the way it moves. • New M button: the beat meter on screen — bass, mid, treble and a dot that flashes on every beat. • The bar is now C · S · M · ? — colour, shape, meter, about. • Every background now slowly zooms and turns; some used to sit still. • Less repetition: the same kind of shape no longer comes straight back. • 60+ patterns that used to look identical each time now vary. • The About card is the same size in portrait and landscape.
