Classics for X

While doing some research on Taipan, I happened to come across this site, Classics for X: http://www.classics-for-x.info/

Basically some games and applications, many of them being old ones, but meant to work on 10.6-10.7 or later.

I'll probably try to upload the stuff there if I can borrow an Intel Mac from my parents over the weekend (all of my Mac stuff's a bit old to support what's on there), but if someone's willing to beat me to the punch, I don't exactly mind.

Just thought I should bring that to everyone's attention.

That's me,
and previous versions of some of the remake games were made carbonized for classic Mac OS versions
from 9.0 on, but I no longer have them handy.

I should have written some development progress at the feed of that site,
which is: nearly finished to make them Retina-ready.

And 64-bit is just a switch in the Xojo compiler used to develop the stuff.
Seems I need to pull it soon as well.

Latest, I came across http://www.taipangame.com
which is a web site that look straight forward like the Apple ][ version.

If so, the Mac OS X games would rely to their own entries,
because of their very different computer architecture and
system requirements compared to the original ones.
