Who's played any of the Babesoul games that are in the ad at the bottom of this page?
I'm intrigued because they have a fair amount of Mac compatible games. I want to support them because of this, but there are no samples or tours. What do you think of their games?

There is
a demo on their parent site, but it requires a plug-in that I didn't care to install.

I just played the demo for a bit, and I'm not very impressed.
It's a standard poker/slotmachine game which is very realistic - which basically means you lose more than you win. I never managed to win enough to get the girl to strip.
Also, it's a bit buggy. Several times I received a payout for a straight I didn't have, and after closing the game Firefox had quite a bit of work cleaning up (about 2 minutes of non-response).

One trouble about Babesoul from my point of view is that their setup requires "Unity" to run. This may be a good game engine for commercial game designers -- I don't know -- but the only unity present is in the name. It is a closed source, proprietary system that, unlike the statement on Babesoul's home page saying that it is "available for all operating systems", is only available for MS Windows and Mac -- Linux appears to be beneath their dignity, despite the fact that anything that can be ported to a Mac is probably just as easily ported to Linux.
Unity appears to seek to be invaluable to all games designers -- as long as they aren't interested in Linux (my OS of choice)!
