Design notes

Metaballs was a 2026 Apple Design Award finalist for Delight and Fun. Metaballs Mobile brings the same playful idea to iPhone and iPad: users drag and reshape organic 3D forms, mix colours and export their creations.

The interface invites experimentation through immediate visual feedback. Soft-body merging and tactile direct manipulation make a technical 3D modelling concept understandable without a dense toolbox, while export options provide a useful path beyond play.
