Mine tops at 19.7, and I got a 2.26 Ghz 512MB RAM, so I blame the video drivers...
What I figured out: c=1/3=turning red; c=2/3=turning blue; c=3/3=turning green; c4=c1; r=percentage of changing c; I couldn't figure out d, it means delay and it's added 50 when pressing = and substracted 50 when pressing -, however, when I stop pressing the keys, s always goes back to 0.3... I had more fun watching the numbers at the bottom right change than watching the giant pixels change color XD, so it's obvious I didn't understand the concept...

I wanna try to break this thing.
Xk, what would happen if I were to tape down my - key and put it at highest possible reps? |

cause the last seizure I saw didn't look anything like rotating colours  |
| Xkeeper Posts: 3552/5653 |
s (literally "speed") is just how many palette rotations it can complete in a second.
Of course, at some point it starts looking like a seizure ; |

Without changing delay, my "s" started at about 52, then went down to the mid-40's.
Is a sort-of higher "s" rating good? |

Did anyone even play the After Dark Games that came out?
Supposedly it came with a screensaver (obviously) but I never found it  |
| Koneko Posts: 559/656 |
Man, After Dark! was absolutely the best while I was growing up.
I remember the screensaver with the smiley faces that bounced down and made noises when they hit things. Also some things with crazy shifting gradients, not unlike Cycler. Thinking about Flying Toasters and After Dark takes you back, you know? |

Originally posted by Koneko Clearly I do. What upsets me is that I cannot find a version of it for free that is good and includes flying toast. I want toast, AND toasters, like the original After Dark!
I also want the option to occasionally replace the toasters with other After Dark things actually at some point, but I don't think I can find the lawnmower guy or the kitties or stuff.. |

I use Flying Toasters because Flying Toasters.
They're toasters. That fly. And you either understand that or you don't. Edit: Also I get roughly 112 without delay. |

Looks neat, I got it to peak at around 23.
also, I figured out r and c, they're obvious once you realize the pattern of the colors. |

Originally posted by Kasdarack No, but as stated by HyperHacker, they add additional privacy. I don't work in an office where I can lock the door and nobody can see my screen. Locking my computer so the screensaver comes up affords me a lot of privacy. Want to see what I was doing? Nope, no screen for you -- only flying toasters. 
Besides, I like to freak out my colleagues with my retro screensavers. Flying Toasters, Johnny Castaway... |

My s got up to 16.7, then went down to 12.4, then 15.0, then 13 even. |

Originally posted by Kasdarack Not really (especially on LCDs) but I use them anyway. They're amusing and help add privacy (keeps people from seeing what's on the screen as they walk by). |
| Sukasa Posts: 1676/2068 |
couldn't figure out what the numbers meant, apart from I d.
My speed rating scaled from 0.1 to 19.7. the delay thign apparently had no effect or whatever though... |
| Sweet Kassy Molassy Posts: 592/886 |
I don't use a screen saver. Are they even necessary AT ALL on newer monitors? |
| Prince Kassad Posts: 284/321 |
It would definitely be a nice screensaver in my opinion, because at the moment I have no scvreensaver at all.
And the s rating can go from 4.1 to 98 here, though I prefer 50 myself. |
| Tarale Posts: 1703/2713 |
Okay..... but now I have Flying Toasters 
They're freaking out everybody with their uh.... retro.... ness.. |

Try renaming it to .scr, that should work ... but you'd still have to press "q" to exit, just moving the mouse wouldn't be enough
s only goes up to 14 here, for some reason, but I guess it's still enough |
