Flick paint at the canvas and feel it splat. iSplatter is the oddly satisfying, Jackson Pollock style art toy: drips, neon, glitter, spray, ink blots, and pure controlled chaos. Splatter a blank canvas or your own photos, then export your masterpiece in full resolution. MAKE A MESS • Tap or drag anywhere to throw paint • Paint with two fingers for double the chaos • Shake your phone for a burst of random splats • Crank up size, density, spread, and opacity EIGHT SPLAT STYLES Classic, Drips, Ink Blot, Spray, Neon, Glitter, Watercolor, and Splash. Or design your own splat stamp, dot by dot, in the Pattern Designer. PAINT MANDALAS Turn on kaleidoscope symmetry and every splat mirrors 4, 6, or 8 ways around the canvas. One finger, instant mandala. COLOR YOUR WAY Pick any color, tap a quick swatch, activate Color Chaos so every splat lands different, or paint with a whole palette at once using color packs like Sunset, Ocean, Candy, and Galaxy. SPLATTER YOUR PHOTOS Load any photo and paint all over it. Add blur, black and white, or contrast filters. Your originals are never changed.

Space Particles is a touch-driven visual sandbox for exploring motion, gravity, and light. Start with a live field of glowing particles, then shape it with gravity wells, repulsion, pulses, stir tools, vortices, and erase or freeze interactions. Switch between presets like spiral galaxies, binary systems, collisions, rings, streams, lattices, and nova-style bursts, or tune the simulation yourself. Particle Mode focuses on gravity-driven motion and emergent patterns. Firework Mode turns the same canvas into a configurable spark launcher with adjustable spread, trail length, gravity, drag, color, size, and lifetime. Built for quick experimentation: - Touch and drag directly on the canvas - Choose particle counts, speed, bounds, trails, colors, and visual themes - Toggle between performance and quality settings - Capture screenshots of scenes you create - Share scene links from the web version Space Particles is for anyone who likes visualizers, creative coding, particle systems, physics toys, generative art, or just watching a screen fill with organized chaos.
