I added the music because it rocks and flash .ocx incase someone doesn't have it. It's about 2 meg for the scr and 1 for the fla. The words come up in order. Music loops forever. Hope you like it :)

I have it looking quite similar to the bootloader, however, because this is a.. well.. a direct copy, releasing this witout permission would be bad. I have emailed but no reply, so I ask you loyal fans (or anyone from IV who reads this), is it alright to release this? I would also release it in original format (.fla) because people don't really trust some random with a .scr. Also currently it doesn't have any music (why would it? being a screensaver implies that there's noone there to hear it :P edit: but the music is just so good, what do you think?).

I think it's OK to release it. If it's not, you'll get a faster reaction usually after you released it :lol:

(how long did you wait, btw? I wouldn't be surprised if it takes two weeks to catch on with all the mail Introversion probably receives)

And .scr is fine with me, my virusscanner will ensure my safety. And there's a new computer underway anyway :wink:

This looks great, though I'd quite like to have it with the music as well. :-)

Looking forward to dling it...

I Love that bootloader - and now the screensaver - so beautiful and tranquil. I especially like the added connection to the Jungian typology theory. All in all a fitting start to such a wonderful game.

Dude, someone needs to make a snake ripoff where you're a soul destroyer and go around devouring souls, hehe.

It's mean, but hey, sue me ^_^

That's a good idea. In an extremely evil way, but still. My computer science teacher is letting us all write games in the last couple weeks of class, so I might have to make that :D

By the way, nice work on the screensaver. Going to use it for a long while.

OK... perhaps I should reiterate

Someone should make a game like what I said and UPLOAD IT FOR EVERYONE >:O

:P
