Mac Gaming News - Norbyte Updates Downfall With Improved Physics

by , 9:00 AM EDT, August 26th, 2004

Norbyte has released an update for Downfall, bringing it to version 2.3.1. Downfall is a strategy game in the Tetris tradition, but designed to take it a step further. The update features improved physics and other enhancements. According to Norbyte:

Software developer Norbyte has released version 2.3.1 of their 3D arcade/puzzle game Downfall.

Downfall takes the falling blocks genre one step further with its real-time 3D graphics and 24 uniquely designed implementations of the classic concept, each offering the player special bonus blocks and rules that fit the board, and requiring different tactics to master.

New in this version:

  • Improved physics
  • The background of the board Jam-Packed has been adjusted
  • A minor bug has been fixed (the continue hotkey in the board help sometimes failed to work)
  • A rare mouse input bug has been fixed
  • Misc. minor improvements

You can find more information about the latest Downfall release at the Norbyte Web site. Downfall 2.3.1 is available shareware for US$14.95.
