impression:


any feedback is welcome. as this is the first release candidate, no bugs should appear and it should be rock stable. if not - please send me your problem, we'll try to fix it.

Looks kinda funky although I don't use screensavers myself - they annoy the @#!* out of me. :P

Me too, but it's a nice design. Did you create the spheres by reading the pixels of text on the backbuffer? So fonts would be possible?

no chance of using fonts for now, they're set "by hand" and the animation is math based. i think also the resolution is too low to use some special font :) but it's a good idea, perhaps in a later release.
