We're working on a few updates to our existing games specifically for Mac OS X, as well as some interesting new stuff
First off, we have Deimos Rising 1.0.1, which is in late beta test right now. This version of Deimos Rising fixes a few minor bugs, and adds native game controller support -- InputSprocket under OS 9, and HID under Mac OS X. That makes it one of the very few games to support HID natively under Mac OS X.
Secondly, we're working on an updated version of Bubble Trouble, rewritten for Mac OS X. This new version of Bubble Trouble is a Mac OS X native version of the old classic, including an "in a window" playing mode for your multitasking pleasure. Still quite a fun game after all these years.
Both of these game updates should be released soon. Of course, we have other stuff in the works too -- check out our upcoming page for details:

hint: there will be a few new projects listed there soon.

How long has 9.1 been out now...

Hmm, Smithereens? I think you mean Slithereens. I heard something about a Slithereens 2. Could anyone from Ambrosia confirm this?

You mean Slithereens, I suspect. I'm not aware of any crashes with Slithereens on 9.1 -- have you tried mailing our tech support at:
[email protected]
? Perhaps we can help you narrow down the problem.

Deimos Rising is VERY addictive, thank you. Thank God I have some time on my hands now.

Deimos rising update: will I be able to pause? Or maybe i'm just stupid and I haven't found the way to pause it yet.
More levels too would be nice. . .
DR is a way cool game. Very much worth the $20.

Wow -- sorry about that, I had not been made aware of that issue. We'll need to track down the Slithereens author and see what we can do about this problem.

Hello,
Yes, I remember Xevious in the arcade. I also remember it being on a console system; perhaps the Atari 7800, but I'm not too sure (it was a long time ago).

Press Caps Lock. Doesn't that work? (Sorry if someone's already said this.)

The 4 o'clock train will be a bus.
It will depart at 20 minutes to 5.

And now for my next routine, I will do an interpretive cursor dance in the pop-pop network game lounge. This fabled pop cursor dance requires intense concentration and impeccable timing to pull off, as well as the ability to bare your soul to the world.
People have likened this beautiful form of self-expression to ballet or figure skating -- the tradition has been handed down for generations, and expresses the gentle lucidity of being we all share.
I have chosen Jane's Addiction's "Three Days" for my accompanying piece

I didn't get sound either. I thought it was a glitch w/ OW.
Caps Lock does pause DR. I never knew this. Thanks, Tie!
