  ...update...<br />This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />gracias for you (and your friend Dylan's help) on the Tiger update... as someone else has written, i was so sad earlier today after installing tiger to notice Red Pill dropping blocks instead of glyphs. Cool to see you've modded code appropriately. Couldn't find your website on the link from the Red Pill prefs menu...site gone/down? ... keep up the awesome work amigo. it's something both stellar and creepy to walk in late at night and have the only illumination be the glowing green of your saver. :-) peace.

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Thank you for updating this. Red Pill was the only custom screensaver I had on my PowerBook and the first thing I noticed busted after I installed Tiger. It'll be great to have it back again!

• Best Mac Matrix Saver (But Not Perfect)

  Pros

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This one is definitely the best out there, but it still bugs me none of these replicate the Matrix code effect as it is in the movie: the actual glyph set, 2d, proper trailing and fading, no overlapping columns, no zoom (not even a super slow one), etc. etc. It really doesn't seem hard to make once you've gotten as far as the Matrix savers that are out there (like MatrixGL) but they still don't do it for me.

  Summary

  ...at all.<br />This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This screen saver is very well done. Now I can have my Marine aquarium days and my Matrix days. They both take me to my happy place. This one is just plain cool, and free. That's five stars no matter how you slice it. Does it come in blue or purple.

• The best \"Matrix\" screensaver!

  Pros

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I've tried three other Matrix screensavers, and Red Pill is clearly the best looking. I love the attention to detail: The raster lines, the rotating streamers, the 3D depth cueing. The use of OpenGL actually makes Red Pill more advanced than the stricly 2D effect used in the movie. Download and give it a try.

• 1.4.1 kills the jerkiness

  grikdogJanuary 4, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Beautiful screen saver, impeccably implemented both in the sense that the mirrored kana are beautifully done, and in the sense that the jerkiness artifact seems to be gone. Deserves 5 stars, gets 'em from me. The hot corner on my iBook's kb surface is Apple's "Problem? What problem?" problem.
