Flip Words is a word-finding game from HipSoft -- find words on a grid and use those letters to solve a familiar phrase. Internet high scores, automatic download of new phrases, and more. We've just completed a port to the Mac (OS X only), and would love some feedback on the beta, which you can find here:

http://www.redmarblegames.com/downloads/FlipWordsMacEslSetup.sit

Any comments are welcome, either by post here or by email to beta@redmarblegames.com. Please include system specs, of course, especially the version of OS X you're running.

In particular, on at least one Mac (but not others) there has been a little wierdness in the drawing of text, so we'd be especially interested to hear if anyone else encounters this.

Thanks in advance for any help or comments you'd like to offer. We really do value your input.

(And if you'd like to see your Windows game on the Mac, feel free to drop us an email on that too, at sales@redmarblegames.com).

Just tried it out and it works great for me. No bugs that I could see. Bonus points for it just being a single application inside the archive.

The only suggestion I have is that the very first time I played it asked me if I wanted to download more phrases. I didn't even know what the game was yet. So I was momentarily confused by that. I would say only ask them that after they have played a little bit.

This is on a G5 with OS 10.3.4
