Symmetry Lab and dCode

Hey all! My first apps are available - both full and basic versions of Symmetry Lab and dCode. Here's a little more info about each that the official description lacks:

Symmetry Lab is not designed to be a powerful drawing environment - it's just a simple, fun way to pass some time, either by drawing your own faces, flowers, or crazy patterns, or by letting the autonomous generator create its own patterns. Also, I realize the difference between basic and full is not extreme - just two types of symmetry and the autonomous generator. Still, if you love basic, I'd encourage you to try the full version! It can do some pretty cool stuff. (Here's an insider's tip: try letting the generator run for a long time, especially with a color like blue. White patterns develop at the intersections, creating an "ice" effect like you can see in one of the screenshots.)

dCode is at the opposite end of the spectrum - it's a very challenging puzzle game for left-brained individuals. The first few levels are exceedingly easy, designed to get you acquainted with the three encoding mechanisms. After that, it's up to you to experiment and try to deduce what's going on. For example, you can hone in on the answer if you see a word pop out at you by slowly moving the shift and tilt in opposite directions. This will keep the word you've found alive while getting the rest of the message toward the goal. My advice is to use the red hint button sparingly and let messing around with sliders do the trick.

Anyway, if you like basic, try the full versions! If you like the full versions, tell a friend! I don't have a huge amount of distribution power so word of mouth can go a long way. I'm just one guy, not a huge software company - and obviously these are pretty simple apps - but they're meant to be fun, and I hope you enjoy them.
