    Thanks for this list. My cross-platform shmup (written in Fenix) should hopefully pop up on this list soon (Mac, PC, and Dreamcast).

    Yo Tim, according to someone on a forum I linked to this post:
    >>>>>
    The link to Doukutsu (Cave Story) in there was for the Linux version. I was pleased to find out that there’s also a Universal (non-Rosetta Intel) version available.
    Mac Download (universal) and the Mac Translation Patcher

    Thanks for the correction, much appreciated. :)

    I’m sure there are more Mac games out there - apologies to the developers whose works I’ve left out from the list unintentionally.

    but there sure is a great lack of indy games on the mac… well, actually a great lack of games generally, but one would think that the indy scene could be more prone to produce cross platform games or games for less widespread OSes like Mac OS and Linux

    Anything open-source written in Java or SDL automatically is for Mac as well, no? It’s a matter of compiling it on one, then playing it, but it’s all there and as available as the open-source Unix games.

    Tim, you’re a star and a lifesaver!
