XKCD Starfield
The XKCD Starfield screensaver is based on issue #1229 of the XKCD webcomic, titled "Screensaver". The strip is based on the classic Starfield Simulation screensaver for Windows, also known as "Flying Through Space". This screensaver copies the idea of the comic that one of the stars is bound to hit the camera at some point. Every once in a while, a star will collide with the "camera" and the signal is lost until the screensaver is restarted.

Please make this available for MacOS Big Sur! (had to rate it, so +5 for concept, -3 for not being updated)
This great screensaver must be updated from a 32-version to a 64-bit version, or it will lose its functionality on Mac computers. Would you please upgrade the Mac xkcd screensaver? It is the closest screensaver to the old Windows “Flying Through Space” screensaver that is usable on a Mac. The original xkcd screensaver is still Version 1 and has never been updated. The time is now. - Please!
