Alpha Polaris 1.0 Mac OSX
Mac OS X | English | Turmoil Games | Just A Game | 778.59 MB
Genre: Horror | Psychological
In the midst of the snowfields of Greenland lies Alpha Polaris, an American oil research station. High above, the ion storm of the century is gathering, bringing about a strange intermixing of reality and night terrors. It is up to Rune Knudsen, a Norwegian biologist, to take on a desperate struggle against fear and death, and to face the primordial force lurking beyond the veiled sky.
“The heart of the game is its restrained horror setting. It allows us to explore a wide range of human themes in a realistic way: paranoia, isolation, friendship, love and so on. To us, that is the core of a good horror adventure.” -project leader Teemu Vilen.

Personal Notes
Easy port, installed d3dx9 for smoother cutscenes.
This port utilizes Wine v1.3.23. There are known mouse issues but I have been successful in using this engine for several ports. If the mouse fouls up on you simply shut down the program and restart. Whenever I came across this issue this method has worked everytime
If you run into issues with the mouse locking up and opineting downward at all times and the above method will not work for you, or if menu selection is rather difficult, please download the Wineskin Winery Application and use the game ports Wineskin interface to change the WineskinEngine.bundle. You will have to download the bundles using Wineskin Winery before you attempt to switch out the engines. The suggested engine to use would be 1.3.18 or lower…everything above that version has an Xinput2 implementation that seems to cause issues in MacOS X.
