This is last version from my hand
As I'm joining the army (In my country, it is duty. o_o ), I can't have sufficient time to continue development of it.
I join the army in Mar 19.
This is clone of Nexus live wallpaper from Android.
Energy-beam-like shape moves around screen.
Backgrounds not included
How can I install it on my system?

In fact, I just left this extension for several years, so I cannot sure that It would work on gnome shell nowadays. I have been busy for my own life, even after my army life.
I'm sorry about that. :-

If I upgrade to gnome 3.4 does it will work?
I wish someone continue to work on this, since you don't have time.

In fact, development was almost stopped (but not at all) in November while it was being changed.
(Adding features like stopping itself as a window is maximized, Sliding plane while switching workspace... )
Thanks for reminding me, and 0.6 version will be in 2 or 3 week. ( or may be earlier. 'u' )

This extension uses its most cpu usage in animating. So, I'm also consider to use Tweener which gnome shell uses to animate gui elements.
Currently, to lower cpu usage, you can do any of them in
dconf-editor > org > gnome > shell > extensions > nexus
( Lower animation steps )
lower proceed-timeout
( Lower counts of pellets visible )
increase speed-max, speed-min
decrease spawn-probability
increase spawn-timeout

I had been used nexus live wallpaper since I got my phone upgraded to 2.2. After several months passed, I installed gnome 3 and I thought. "I like Nexus Live Wallpaper and I want use it on my computer too." I like it too. 'u'
( I also think it would be cool if somebody clone this to Compiz, and others )
Thanks again. 'u'

- by gnome-tweak-tool
- by dconf-editor ( or other that can edit gsettings ) : add "nexus@wsidre.egloos.com" in "disabled-extensions" at "org/gnome/shell"
You may turn on it by vice versa.
