Please Help Me Identify a Game
Depending on where you live, it was either called "Out Of This World" or "Another World". It's a cool game, because the engine was written as a kind of "virtual machine" that interprets game bytecode. And the interpreter itself was pretty small, and easy to port to new platforms, so although the game started on the Amiga and Atari ST, it got a ton of ports over the years (literally a couple dozen systems). There are even open source versions of the game engine.

1-Bit Hokusai’s ”The Great Wave”
This site design is one of the best retro Mac site designs I've seen. The author really nailed the pixel perfect fonts — it looks perfect on my low-DPI and high-DPI displays.
If anyone's interested, there's an active HyperCard community with some fun projects. There's a Discord server, too. https://hypercard.org/
(I found that community through the Avara community, a port of the classic Mac multiplayer networked mech shooter from Ambrosia: https://github.com/avaraline/Avara)

New on MacSourcePorts.com: Half-Life
Myth II is there but not Myth. Was the source never made available for it? I thought project magma had adapted the engine for II to run both games. The Avara port probably warrants a slot at some point too.
