Update (Dec 2022): You can find a Ruffle -emulated version at mandelbrot.liglig.art

---

Just felt a little short of things to do and decided I needed a little bit of practice with my Flash skills.

So, presenting the Flash Mandelbrot Generator!
While Flash is not the ideal program for this kinda number crunching (don't try and make wallpapers using this kids!), it does well enough job to see some basic fractals in action.

If I find some more time I might continue tinkering with this and possibly add some different fractals.

Updates
Now renders in lines as opposed to the whole thing at once! (This should make it far more usable and less likely to lock up your browser)
Fixed up minor mistake with the escape parameter - now is a much better looking Mandelbrot!

Instructions
Flash Mandelbrot Generator,
David Coles (June 2007)

To use, just drag a box over the area you wish to zoom in on!
Be warned, at small dot size or very large depth the picture can take a very long time to generate.

Keys
m - Change Rendering Mode
r - Reset
PageUp/Down - Increase/Decrease Calculation Depth (Detail)
Up/Down Arrows - Increase/Decrease Dot Size
Space - Render image again

Rendering Modes
0 - Blue, 1 (smoothed),
2 - Green, 3 (smoothed),
4 - Red, 5 (smoothed)
