Press release edited by Applelinks senior editor Kirk Hiner

Stick Software has announced version 1.1 of Solarian II, the classic Mac video game. Solarian II was one of the first games out for the color Macintoshes introduced in 1988, winning various awards and accolades, but it has not been able to run on OS X because Classic couldn't handle it. Now, by popular demand, Solarian II has been ported to OS X and re-released!

Version 1.1 of Solarian II requires OS X 10.3 to run. It is very faithful to the original: all the old sounds are there (but with their hiss and static cleaned up), all the old graphics are there (but the game will now run at any resolution, in thousands or millions of colors), and the gameplay is exactly the same...just the way you remember it.

Solarian II joins Stick Software products such as Eyeballs, Fracture, PhotoReviewer, Aquatint, Trisection and Constrictor. It is shareware, with a price of only $10, and it's free to try.
