Impact

Impact 1.21 is a bugfix release that deals with a number of small problems and a quite big one.

Apple recently released a new version of their Safari Browser for Retina MacBooks that breaks many Impact games and produces garbled fonts and blurry scaled up versions of games. I wrote a bit more about this whole ordeal over at PhobosLab.

Impact 1.21 carefully works around these issues. If you want your games to run on Retina MacBooks in Safari, you should update.

As always, if you're updating from a previous version, take care to not overwrite your own files. You'll just need to update the files in lib/impact/ and lib/weltmeister/. Grab the new version from your download page.
