Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS. Update: The developer added the ability to tap a specific point in an image to sample.Second update: initially I didn’t realize it did display RBG and HSL values because it’s not displayed in the initial sampling data. You have to actually save the color to your library. Which is a little clunky and unintuitive.Hard to tell from the description and screenshots. But you can’t tap to pick a specific area of an image and get the color data.It only pulls the most significant colors from the image. Definitely not helpful for my purposes. Really sorry :( This has been on my roadmap forever and the next update will bring tagging…from apps.apple.com

Angeldust's game server is pervasively multithreaded, implementing John Carmack's dream of processing an immutable world state each tick. Both world handling and network traffic routing uses any number of threads. For networking, a typical game session only uses ~3Kbps of bandwidth, enabling decent play even over 2G/EDGE networks.
