Nexuiz is an awesome, cross-platform deathmatch game. It’s an addictive, high-quality first person shooter that’s grown a lot since the project first started. It’s incredibly fast-paced, and plays a lot like Quake 4. It’s a blast to play, and has a fast-growing community of people to play with. If you liked Tremulous, you’ll love Nexuiz.

Alien Abduction is a nice-looking game for Mac (and Windows), where you fly a little ship in a space environment. It’s a lot like the classic arcade game Defender. It has bright neon colors and is great for 5 minute breaks. It even has a level editor (which isn’t out yet for Mac) that lets you create your own levels. Have fun!
