Detailed description follows:
---------------------------------------------------------

Brewster is a spectacular screensaver for Windows 95 / NT only, which simulates a kaleidoscope. Unlike any other program on the market, it is an accurate simulation which produces mirrored images in the manner of a real kaleidoscope. Just like the real thing, it produces colourful symmetric patterns which slowly change as the viewpoint rotates. On the other hand, the objects in the view can be altered at the touch of a button, and the image can be stretched or distorted to fill the screen. Objects can also be animated, or change colour in rainbow patterns.

You can design and save your own patterns, or just press the Randomise button for a unique new design at any time. Patterns range from gentle snowflake-like images to brain-burning psychedelic extravaganzas. But don't take our word for it - try the shareware demo for yourself! The demo is fully functional but prints a message on screen after a short time.

System requirements: Brewster will operate on any system capable of running Windows 95 / NT. Better performance will be achieved by faster processors and better graphic cards. Much depends on the screen resolution. There are some notes in the documentation about how to get the most out of your system.

Brewster costs $20 to register. To pay by credit card over the internet, just click on the appropriate buttons while running Brewster, and it will launch your browser and connect you to a secure web site. Or you can connect to the Brewster Home Page. Other payment options are detailed in the program's documentation.
