Having followed all the instructions, I installed it on my Panther G5 dual.
It blacked out the screen, sent the fans into overdrive. The only way I could stop it was to cut the power supply and restart.
Falling Up
A twist on the traditional "falling tetronimos" game.

AVOID this program like the plague!!!!!! - lucytune
I have no idea what caused the problem. The program did run for a few seconds, and the first time that it blacked out the screen was immediately after the pieces first began to run upwards.I have never had a similar problem with any Mac systems.
Although it blacked me out twice, since I removed the program everything seemed to be running fine, except that I had to reset some strange changes that had been made to my sound out preferences, i.e. volume had been turned to zero.

Innoculation here in 005! :) - kaolinfire
004 had a busyloop that ironically, really taxed higher-performing computers. I finally got a chance to go back and fix it (and tune up a few other minor things as well). I hope you'll give it another chance :)Tuesday, April 28 2009 @ 02:05 PM PDT

very odd. I can't imagine what would cause that. Can you state explicitly what you did in following the instructions? I have run it on a dual processor G5 panther installation with no such problems. In any case, not following the instructions should only keep it from running; the application doesn't even have a full-screen mode, so I don't see how it would take over the display. Honestly curious...would you be willing to see if this is a repeatable scenario? Perhaps I could come up with some debug trace for you to run...
