Levels of play

I wrote FracRove to be easy to use, on a point and click basis. There are no complicated commands or batch files to make up.

  1. Demonstration. An auto-running sequence of pictures with some text explanations now and again.(not in current release)
  2. Tutorial. If you've never encountered a fractal exploration program before, try this to get some practice. (not in current release)
  3. EasyMode. Don't bother with all those options and parameters and stuff. Just start zooming down. FracRove judges the best settings of the parameters as you descend into the fractal depths.(not in current release)
  4. Advanced Level. I open up the Julia Sets, options and parameters for you to tweak to your heart's content.
  5. Genius Level. Now you can start pushing it into other dimensions and see what it looks like as you get farther and farther from home.
  6. Magus Level. Now the real fun begins: I let you slice right through the beast itself so you can explore some of its other faces. With care, you can build up a number of 3D models of the beast.
  7. Master of the Unibrot. Use the FracRove Iteration Engine to produce nearly 3 million fractal objects. You can explore each in full 4D glory like the Mandelbrot Set.(not in current release)
