Ignis Fatui

The OpenGL-powered Ignis Fatui screensaver displays colorful particle formations on your screen against a black background. The color is selected randomly at startup, but can optionally be customized via the screensaver's settings menu, where you can also choose the direction, size and speed of the particles, as well as the amount of them shown.

I love this screensaver! but I upgraded to a new 27" iMac and Big Sur and now it doesn't work, and with a iOS update 11.2.2 it disappeared. So sad Hopefully I will find a way to get it back on my Mac.

I think this screen saver is really pretty and i am pleased that it stretches my dual monitors without looking weird. Would be 5 stars but i dropped one for it not being as HD looking as i was hoping.
