Paint Dynamics is a realtime fluid-paint experience powered by Metal. Create flowing streams of color, watch them react to gravity, and shape the movement directly with your touch. Paint sources can be added, removed, moved, recolored, and adjusted live, turning the screen into an interactive digital paint simulation. Whether you want to relax, experiment, explore motion, or simply enjoy colorful fluid patterns, Paint Dynamics gives you a clean and responsive creative playground. Features: • Realtime fluid-paint simulation • Add, move, recolor, or remove paint streams • Interactive touch modes for dragging or disturbing the flow • Adjustable animation speed, stream speed, gravity, wobble, source size, brightness, and contrast • Adjustable bucket height where the paint collects • Optional metallic paint shading for a reflective look • Automatic saving of settings, stream positions, and colors • Clean fullscreen interface with minimal controls • Fully offline — no accounts, no ads, no data collection Paint Dynamics is a playful visual experiment for anyone who enjoys generative art, digital fluids, color motion, and interactive visual effects.
