MandelSquare Yet another program to generate images from the Mandelbrot set, different from most implementations in that it runs only under AmigaOS 2.x, requires an '020/'030/'040 CPU and a numerical coprocessor. The calculation routines were written in '881 assembly language for maximum speed and precision. Also included is a `movie mode' which allows generation of long camera zooms to spots in the Mandelbrot set. The resulting animations can be saved in ANIM-opt-5 format, allowing to replay them using `MandelSquare' or standard animation software. Enhancements include support for the AGA chipset (now you can finally create images in 256 colours!) and several bug fixes and improvements in the image and animation creation code.

This game was made and tested under Workbench 2.0, so the colors may look a bit strange under WB1.3. Version 2.0, binary only.
