  1. This is a 2D game, so you can run it in a virtual machine.

    No, not necessarily. Even though it requires less CPU and GPU than a 3D game, issues still can be detected.

    From my experience, it doesn't work well with Crossover Games nor booting Win7 with Parallels Desktop 6. The only way i found to have a perfectly working game was natively booting under Windows, via Bootcamp.

  2. I work on Mac, and use Bootcamp for gaming. Windows 7 works perfectly, and so does Xenonauts.

    This is the most secure way to play this game on a Mac for the moment. I tried using Crossover Games, the result isn't very good. So either go with Bootcamp, or wait for an eventual ported Mac version.

  3. Surprisingly (or perhaps not) Mass Effect has some great tracks in the vein of tense, eerie, night time confrontation with the unknown:

    To be honest, playing Mass Effect did have an impact for my inspiration regarding Xenonauts. Even though you won't probably find similar tones; this game marked sure. Its been a long time i didn't enjoy a game as much as ME, and the music was really good (apart from the orchestral cinematic scenes that i thought where a bit dull in comparison to the rest, and unnecessary). But, Bioware always has good composers that, it seems, enjoy a certain liberty to express they're creativity.
