August 17, 200817 yr Thought I would share this one with you all.... For those of you who remember the days of Windows 3.11, well there was a free screen saver released by a company called Sierra called "Screen Antics". I had totally forgotten about this gem and OMG someone has ported it so it runs on XP and Vista! So what is Screen Antics? Also known as Johnny Castaway, It's a little guy on a desert island, and his life day to day. He gets up to all sorts of things, even falls in love with a mermaid and goes water skiing with a shark. It will take you forever to see everything that happens to him as he builds the raft on the side of the island. Here's a snapshot of it in action: And here's the Screen Antics Webpage: LINK. Have fun, Clare. [Assist-X]
August 18, 200817 yr downlaoded it! well, best screensaver ever!! wow.. i really hate those xp ballons who keep bouncing up and down .. one disadvantage of this screensaver tho it changes your resolution. but overall 10/10
August 18, 200817 yr Haha wow i remember that one. But for me the ultimate old-school screensaver is Afterdark's coffee shop one on the mac. From the same program that had the flying toasters.
August 18, 200817 yr Author Wow yeah, Afterdark was on windows too. But still, Screen Antics has me gripped after all these years, I just saw Johnny eating boots :) [Assist-X]
