Happy (belated) New Year!

A starry sky, randomly generated by the program below.

Happy new year! Sorry this post is a bit late - I was busily putting the above together after my last post on browserify. Anyway, I hope that you have a peaceful and awesome new year :-)

If you look up into the sky tonight, what do you see? Hopefully something more-or-less like my latest demo (just more detailed :P). As you can see in the above picture, this time, I've created a canvas animation of a starry sky. The stars even rotate and twinkle, and are slightly dimmer near the bottom-centre of the screen.

Check it out for yourself: Starry Sky

Now all it needs are some fireworks....

For the curious the code is available on my personal git server.
