Cultivate fluorescent colonies on a 7×7 slide. Three bacterial sources (red, green, and blue) are fixed in the dish, while gray target wells are randomly scattered. Select a stained square and spray spores in four directions: empty squares will attach the same color; collisions with other colonies will mix to form yellow, purple, and cyan, and the colonies will divide in four directions, up to two layers.

Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be.
