Is it a good idea to write a screensaver in Java? Probably not. Nevertheless, this is the language that I knew in high school, and so this is what I wrote it in.
For the most part, either compile to a jar or download the pre-built jar and run it. If you want to set it as your screensaver on windows, download a jar to exe program, convert the jar to an exe, and set the screensaver to the exe.
Shows Pusheen walking back and forth on the bottom of your screen. He will occasionally stop and do things. Automatically takes up the full screen. To exit, move the mouse.
Pusheen.javais the main class that kicks everything off. It gets the screen dimensions, creates a new instantiation of itself (which is an implementation of aDoubleBufferedCanvas), and sets up amouseListenerto kill the program upon mouse movement. It also contains the logic for tracking Pusheen, making him do things, and painting the canvas.DoubleBufferedCanvas.javais a more rudimentary implementation of theDoubleBufferedCanvasthat appears in Dodge. It is my personal implementation of a pseudo-double buffered canvas and an abstractRunnableinterface. The constructor must be supplied a desired fps target, and theDoubleBufferedCanvaswill attempt to match that rate.
