    Stars screensaver

    “My God, its full of stars!”

    Here’s a little screensaver I kind of accidentally made while coding a prototype game.  I’m still working on the game, I just thought this worked well as a nice serene screensaver.  I’ll hopefully update the screensaver in future to allow adjustable options.

    A low quality preview is available at Youtube here.  Designed in the Microsoft XNA framework for Windows XP and Vista.

    Requirements to run the screensaver:

    .NET Framework 2.0
    DirectX 9.0c (even if you have this, you may be missing files required for XNA)
    XNA Runtimes 2.0

    Download screensaver (.scr) here – Save to your Windows/System32 folder, then choose Stars as your active screensaver in Windows.  Enjoy :-)
