What is Monkey?

  Monkey is a 3D-accelerated Winamp visualization plug-in that takes you on a psychedelic journey through a never-ending network of underground passageways.

The latest version is 1.02, released on December 16, 2002, now featuring Desktop Mode, where you can run Monkey as animated Windows wallpaper!    What else is new?
 

System Requirements

 
  • Hardware-based 3D graphics acceleration
