Art in Motion is a new kind of art application. It’s based on the idea that art should evolve with technology. The iPad is the best multi-touch device on the market, and it is packed with huge processing power. Standard drawing can be very fun, but it hardly makes full use of these advancements in technology. How does Art in Motion compare to standard drawing? • With Art in Motion you create a scene instead of a painting. • Instead of drawing mountains, or trees, you customize and add orbs to your scene. • Instead of looking at your drawing, you watch your orbs come alive. • Unlike a painting, there is motion and life in your creation. You can even interact with your scene. • In a painting colors don’t change, in the scene colors fade and flow constantly. What are some examples of scenes I can create? • By adding many small orbs with little friction and bounce, you can create a water effect. It can slosh around realistically as you tilt your iPad. • You can create a large orb with gravity, and many smaller ones. Watch them as they orbit around like comets flying around a star. • You can create a scene where brilliant colors follow your fingers as you touch the screen. • You can create a scene where you fling fireworks with your fingers and watch them explode into beautiful colors. Features • Powerful physics engine • 20 bundled scenes (to play with and study) • Intuitive interface for creating new scenes of your own • Full multi-touch support, so all 10 fingers can play at once • Many settings allowing for unique and one of a kind scenes • Clear documentation • VGA out support What are people saying about it? • "... very organic, smooth, I like it a lot!" Jordan Rudess from Dream Theater! • “It’s what they would use on board the USS Enterprise for entertainment” G. C. • "Be prepared to melt away hours of your night!" J. S. • “Every iPad owner should have this app, there’s nothing like it!” C. K.

Fireworks originate from fireworks, and fireworks originate from gunpowder. Gunpowder is one of the four great inventions of China, invented in the 7th century (Tang Dynasty). During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, gunpowder developed into a firework for entertainment. Fireworks are also called fireworks and fireworks. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty has a poem: "The lamp tree is a thousand light, the flower flames seven branches". In the Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD), people at that time could buy a variety of different fireworks in the market, and there were also large-scale fireworks displays. At that time, "shelf fireworks" or "bonsai fireworks" had become quite large. During the Lantern Festival, the high-ranking officials are more beautiful than ever. From shortly after palming the lamp until even more slack. The poet Xin Qiji once said that "the east wind will bloom thousands of trees at night, and the stars are like rain", which is a vivid and vivid description of it. Fireworks in the real world are often fleeting, but they will leave a moment of beauty. This feeling is like bursting out a white beacon in the dark world, guiding the future direction . After one year of development time, I developed a particle engine to simulate real-world fireworks, and added dozens of fireworks to the game. In future updates, we will continue to add new types of fireworks, hoping to bring you A great experience.
