This is very nice looking, although the initial settings were too fast and made it a bit distracting. I've stuck with the default live wallpaper that came with my Nexus 4 until now.

Thanks! I agree on the speed, though it's kind of set in stone for the most part since that was the default when I first released the app. I'd love to go in and make a mess of the project by rewriting things and changing all the defaults, but now that I have a small amount of users, it sort of behooves me not to do what I'd do with my other personal projects.

That also makes it difficult to introduce new features since I can't just switch them on and I don't really want to pester users about it. Not entirely sure how to handle that yet, but I've been focusing on other personal projects and job hunting. Worrying about adding stuff to Ascension hasn't been a huge concern. It does what I want, so I haven't found anything else I'd like to add to it just yet.

Could you have "Classic" (current) and "Remixed" (tweaked) versions of the current presets?
I felt that 30 FPS was too choppy when moving left-right between home screens. 60 FPS works well. "Glass" is deliciously retro.

I actually liked a faster "wave propagation" speed.

All personal taste though, which Android excels at. =)
