Good Dark Live Wallpaper for S8?

[CincyGuy]

Looking for good dark live wallpaper recommendations that will take advantage of the S8 gorgeous screen, but not be too distracting of a background. S8 stock live wllpapers are fine, but looking to change it up. Thanks.

Space colony or the google ones which can be sideloaded.

Wave. For less distraction, slow it down.

The live Earth wallpaper from the pixel is nice.

Actually that is where I have been getting my dark themed abstract wallpapers. Great selection of those, didn't realize they have live wallpapers - will have to check it out.

So I tried wave, and even at the slow setting it was too distracting for my OCD - thanks for the recommendation though.

The built-in S8 live wallpapers are about as much as I can handle going on in the background, but I can't find anything close to those. I looked at a few "ICS phase beam" clones, but they are either $$ and haven't been updated for at least two years, or the couple free ones I tried didn't even work.

I did stumble upon this interesting app (Weatherback) that takes your static wallpaper and just adds stuff to it based on the weather: frost if it is freezing outside, raindrops if it is raining, and some subtle sunbeams if it is sunny. I tried the free version and I like it enough that I will spring for the $$ version to get extra effects like fog, starlight at night, etc.

This seems to be enough to change things up a bit without having a bunch of stuff moving in the background making my OCD go into overdrive. And the effect works really well on the abstract small pattern wallpapers I like to use.
