    Cls: dragon 400, 300, 90 + (a * 3), a, 16

    If a < 200 Then a = a + .15

    If p < .002 Then p = p + .00000001

Loop Until _KeyHit





Sub dragon (x, y, size, ang, depth)

    If depth < 1 Then

        PSet (x, y), _RGBA(50, 150, 255, 50 + Rnd * 200)

    Else

        size2 = size / 1.414214: ang2 = ang - _Pi / p

        dragon x, y, size2, ang + _Pi / p, depth - 1

        dragon x + size2 * Cos(ang), y + size2 * Sin(ang), size2, ang2, depth - 1

    End If

End Sub

Wow amazing!
