Any company that provides a Mac version of the game and then has the demo download maxxing out my 10Mbit connection gets my approval. I almost have to buy the thing out of principal now.
The demo has convinced me. The animation alone is worth it for me.

They respawn in Precipice too.
The only thing that disappointed me was the lack of any voice-overs, apart from the narrator. I agree with the comment about the grinding too - there's too much combat with too little story.
I've managed to get the cat furball once - didn't realise the odds were that low!
I've got my best 'rake' now and i've only done one boss fight so hopefully im only half way through - its great fun. Trying to block those friggin mimes is a pain in the arse.

I don't mind it, you can't really give a voice to tycho and gabe, shame the narrator only appears at the starting area :(
Oh, I think the cat furball chance is greatly exaggerated, I got him to do it twice.

i agree exempt with linux version of course. spose i better get reading those comics
I played the demo and bought the game right after I finished the demo. There is a LOT of humor besides the obvious storyline stuff such as when clicking on random things. I thought the turn based combat system would be boring, but it's actually pretty cool and the animations are hillarious (tossing oranges or the triple special.) And it runs on everybody's favorite OS (assuming your favorite OS is Windows, Linux or Mac.) I wish every game was like that. I completely beat the game with the exception of some of the music and artwork and while it was short, it was great while it lasted.

Looks nice, might give it a try.
