App: JWildfire
Developer: Andreas Maschke
Genres: Grafik und Design, Produktivität

JWildfire is a very sophisticated flame fractal generator whose roots go back about 25 years.

Key Features:
 - is probably the most versatile Flame fractal editor available
 - has lots of parameters, most of them can be animated by motion-curves/keyframes
 - visually appealing graphical user interface which is optimized for exploring the fractal realm in a very playful way
 - contains about 800 variations/formulas
 - lots of random-flame-generators which produce nice fractals forms as starting point for your own creations
 - numerous sub-modules like 
     - MutaGen: for creating mutations of existings frames
	 - Interactive/Infinite renderer
	 - Dancing Flames: sound-synchronized animation of parameters 
 - Java-based scripting-interface which easily lets you create your own fractals-generators
 - Continuous development/improvement since the last 10 years
 - The project is Open Source, so you can even contribute to it: https://github.com/thargor6/JWildfire 

Note: By purchasing the application in the App Store you are helping a lot to make it possible to distribute it on the macOS-platform. This means, the software remains open source (of course!), and you may still build it on your own.

Release notes:
Major changes:
-huge improvements in solid rendering
  -needs less render time (about 66%)
  -more accurate lighting calculation
  -much faster tone-mapping
  -all solid-random-flame-generators now support many more base-shapes
-new "Solid (recursive)"-random-flame-generator to generate simple but nice solid flames
-alphabetic sorting of gradients and scripts inside of their tree-views
-many bug fixes, some of them macOS-specific
