Yes, we could chuck a lot of ones and zeors at each other (which would probably be fun), but until I have those in production, let me show you a cool desktop toy or wallpaper, or screensaver, I honestly don’t know which category this Would fall in.
Binary Toys is a simple executable file that will put one or more creatures on your desktop. The creatures look a bit like voxel (triangle shaped pixel) creatures, or perhaps some Tron characters and will happily trot around your screen to their hearts content. You can pick them up, drop them, throw them around, following the laws of physics, but they will move on their own, in an actually quite lifelike way.
There is absolutely no point to all this, but it is quite cool. The application could be a bit more advanced with perhaps an easy way to create your own creature, but if you just want some little dudes running around the screen it’s a great choice. I seriously hate any type of movement on my desktop, but I am using this as a sort of screensaver, for which it does very well.
