Seeing as how nothing ever seems to run on OS X, I ask... Does this run on OS X?

[MainMemory]

Unless Mono on OS X has different bugs or missing features compared to Mono on Linux, it should run just fine.

Must say, I don't use Windows, so I can't test, but from the video Scrap Brain looks absolutely gorgeous. Had this idea for a custom Dust Hill-themed wallpaper one time and this would be perfect to get a result like I was looking for.

[MainMemory]

You might be able to run it anyway, if you install Mono.

I tried adding scaling to EHZ, and even at just 2x scale, the framerate dropped massively. I would have to come up with a much faster scaling method than the one SonLVL has currently and the one GDI+ gives me.

I've managed to add scaling to GHZ, EHZ and S2CNZ in a way that doesn't hurt the framerate too much. You can change the scale setting in the level's setup.ini, the default is "Auto", which uses the largest integer that will fit on your screen vertically, or you can enter an integer greater than 0 for a constant scaling factor.

Thanks for putting the work into that! I set EHZ to 2x scale and it looks perfect on my dual monitor setup.

Oil Ocean Zone, which supports scaling, and comes in two varieties, because I discovered while making it that the game doesn't display the whole background.

Definitely one of the slower ones, even at 1x I get 49 fps at max. Scaling it up doesn't impact the framerate that much though, which is nice.

I'm currently having an issue with Marble Zone, where some of the rows of clouds are at the bottom of the screen...

I'm having this too. Blame my 1080p display?

[Woofmute]

If it helps, I'm running a 1080p display too.

[MainMemory]

Yeah, now I've updated it to extend the sky vertically on screens taller than 1024 pixels.

You extract the 7z files into the folder with the screensaver file, so that they all end up in subfolders (the archives include the folders).

Okay, now that I've seen this actually in action, this is awesome! />/>/> I think I'm gonna let a couple of my buddies know about this screen saver, and how awesome it is! good job MM!

and to be honest... I totally want this on my phone now.
