Fireflies
10.1.1
Freeware
Author's description: Port of the OpenGL ScreenSaver made by Matt Perry. This ScreenSaver is displaying swarms of fireflies tracking baits. Source code available.
Our verdict: Another great OpenGL-powered screensaver ported by Stéphane Sudre. At least we've established that we have a thing for screensavers featuring fuzzy glowing trails. This one resembles Flocks on steroids and, quite possibly, acid. The fireflies themselves are fairly primitive, but the trails they leave are not. In addition the interaction between the different groups produces a great effect. Default speed can be somewhat too fast.
Notes on this version: Japanese localization
