I didn't see anyone mention Freeverse. They've diversified over the years, but are still in the Mac game market. It's true that Apple really hasn't made a concerted effort at being a good gaming platform. They did try to do something similar to DirectX with their GameSprockets, but I don't know if those even made it to OS X. Since then they've stuck with OpenGL and OpenAL, though they do have some platform-specific OpenGL extensions that can improve performance.

I think a LiveArcade-style system like what Alec suggests would be a great idea.

Edited to add: I should clarify that I'm speaking for myself here, not for Ambrosia

I haven't tried Aquaria on a MacBook yet. But it runs fine on my iMac G5, so it ought to be okay.
