Hydromancy is an OpenGL screensaver for OS X. One of my favorite books when I was younger was about a panda bear who had a box of paints and started mixing up the different colors. This screensaver is exactly like that book, except now the panda bear is an amorphous blob and instead of mixing paint, he's just sort of oozing around the screen.

Options are included to control the number of liquid blobs moving on screen as well as the variety of blob colors.

Completly freeware.

What's New:
New Colors tab in Configure panel enables you to exert more control over the colors of the blobs.
New advanced option lets you turn on an experimental 3D rendering mode. (This doesn't look so great at the moment.)
Fixed a rendering bug that caused the blob edges to occasionally flicker.
