Swarm Multitouch is a simple graphic application featuring a swarm of particles moving around the screen in a moderately organic pattern. A counter on the lower right of the screen allows the swarm to be divided into as many as nine independent swarms. Moving your finger around on the screen will cause the swarm to follow your touch. If you use multiple fingers on the screen at the same time, the swarm will break up and a portion of the swarm will track each finger. A "settings" screen allows modifications to swarm size, appearance, and behavior. This is my first iOS application so please, be kind.
