That seems to have broken the icon-sprite? It shows the "default" 32b icon now?
Shift-reload pls

Variform by Kewlers is wrongly tagged as MacOSX Intel. It's MacOSX PPC only.

are you sure variform is ppc only? i can't be bothered to boot a mac to test it right now but i seem to recall playing it on my old macbookpro which was intel...

It certainly appears so...

Perhaps you ran it on a version of OS X that had PPC emulation?

If i remeber well, it's simple to know the type of binaries running on which OSX by their 4 bytes header:

CAFEBABE: Universal binaries
FEEDFACE: PPC binaries
CEFAEDFE: X86 binaries

OSX-PPC was supported on intel up to 10.6.8
10.7 Lion upwards was intel x86 only.
And now (or soon) we'll need an OSX ARM category?
...yes indeed!
