Comments on: Bonnie’s Bookstore Mac http://www.philsteinmeyer.com/97/bonnies-bookstore-mac/ Phil Steinmeyer's rumblings on the game biz, programming, and life Sun, 11 Dec 2011 09:02:40 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Phil Steinmeyer http://www.philsteinmeyer.com/97/bonnies-bookstore-mac/comment-page-1/#comment-773 Phil Steinmeyer Sun, 30 Apr 2006 04:14:13 +0000 http://www.philsteinmeyer.com/97/bonnies-bookstore-mac/#comment-773 Thanks for the nice mini-review, and for noting that I had the wrong link here - that's fixed now. I was also linking to the wrong page (fixed now) on PopCap's site. The correct, Mac-oriented Bonnie's Bookstore page doesn't show the 'Basic Web Version' link at all. The web version was done in ActiveX, which is a Windows only-tech, so there's no practical way to do a Mac version of the web playable game. But the web version is basically only a teaser anyways - download the full deluxe version for Mac (or PC), and it's quite nice.

Third: the "basic web game" version of BB doesn't seem to work on my mac, either in Safari or Firefox. You might want to have popcap remove that link until it works. Good luck, and I'd be interested in hearing more about your opinions about the experience of the mac port from a developer perspective.
