Quite an endearing toy app, wish there were some way of exporting files as 3D ?

Also wondered if there were similiar other fractal type programs ??

There are many fractals in higher dimensions. One of the most common is a 3d slice of a 4d julia set (computed with quaternions instead of complex numbers).
