Hydromancy

I had the previous version of this and thought it was great. Sadly this updated version just crashes System Preferences as soon as I click on it.

BSOD!

Fun, but rather blocky. Opening it in Quartz Composer and editing the text renderer so it produces a rectangular rather than a 2D texture produces much nicer, smoother results. It's less authentic, I guess, but the scaling on the blocky version is so ugly to look at. Perhaps this could be an option?

Excellent. Can we control the radius of the circles, please?

Wow - excellent game. Fantastic retro-style and fun gameplay, too...

Text Slots

Well, it does what it says. Almost. Upon launching one is greeted with a crudely drawn interface and a choice of two buttons. Pressing the play button closes and redraws the window, and one of two things happen: you either win $10 or you spend $1. And that's it. Press 'Cash out' to quit.

There's no animation to speak of, no feedback of any kind, in fact - no reason to play. Simply hold down return and watch as the window flashes away and the value in the bottom corner goes up and down.

Pointless, sadly.

Nice because it's free. However, I prefer to have my downloads folder somewhere other than the desktop. I've found that starting the download then dragging the file to the desktop while Safari downloads it works just as well. It'd be nice if the developer would just ask Safari where it's put the file and do it that way.
