The planet is about 60% Earth's gravity so the tanks are fun to bop around in.
I'm running it on Snow Leopard with no problem.
FYI: Garage Games no longer owns the game, it's on Shockwave for $7.
Contenta Converter BASIC

This is a PC port with ugly dated icons and gibberish for instructions:
"There is a long list of possible tag to choose from that will take a value if the photo contains metadata about it..."
Yuk.
Got frustrated, found Name Changer (Mac native) and had my files renamed in about 2 minutes. worked beautifully.

BdCalendar
Lovely teal, hot pink and bright purple text, grainy snapshots placed behind the calendars, little buttons and check boxes all crammed in together. What nostalgia! Like an OS9 app from the good old days.
(Please take these comments with a grain of salt. I don't mean them as a review of the functionality of BDCalendar, it's just been a while since I've seen an app this hideous.)

Journler
Statement on MU: "Journler is still free for non-commercial use."
The fact that the developer said these things and then reneged on the promise is reason enough to look elsewhere. There are any number of avenues he could have taken, but to say one thing and do another like that is just bad form.
We expect stuff like this from a company like Micros**t, not a Mac developer.
Mail2iCal
Can anyone help?

Tooble
It slowed my system right down and crashed so I removed it.
Could be that I'm on 10.5.7
Shame.

WireTap Studio
I had WT Pro which I used almost daily. It was a neat little app although a tad pricey for what it did, but I bought it and used the heck out of it.
Then I reinstalled my OS to unjunk my iMac, I go to Ambrosia to see about getting WTP back and now it's 'Studio' and the price has gone to almost SEVENTY dollars!
I can't go back to 'Pro' it's gone and forgotten, so now I'm just left with a bad taste in my mouth. So much for Ambrosia. I don't care how good they think their stuff is, they're just plain greedy.

I just need a quick and simple way to capture audio, I don't need a whole studio, and I dare say a large proportion of your potential customers don't either.
You may have thought it was very clever to replace (instead of add to) WTPro with a higher cost product with more features but you've just pushed a whole level of business away.

Massive Mail
Couldn't even bother with release notes??
Then I won't bother trying 'Massive Mail'.

My apologies.
JournalX
This program is up there with the best of them. Truly an "iPhoto for PDFs (and everything else)". At the Finder level, it looks like it simply keeps the regular hierarchal thing, when you open and save a document in TextEdit for example it just resaves and on you go. No funny business.
Having everything (PDFs, jpegs, etc.) in one handy place is awesome.
But: The developer's website (what there is of one) is wholly lacking. It's mostly in German and it appears there is no way to contact the author, except by letter!
But hey, if he makes JournalX Leopard compatible - I'll buy it!
Just please lose the horse icon.
