Mine Swept is your basic game of Minesweeper where you have this field of squares and when you click on one, it will tell you one of two things: that you just revealed a mine (at which point, it's game over) or how many mines surround this particular square.
Armed with this information, you then go forth and determine which squares in this field of squares are not hiding a mine. This project came about because I was unhappy with all the other Minesweeper offerings for OSX out there.
So rather than complain endlessly about them, I decided to write my own and get exactly what I wanted in a Minesweeper game.
Here are some key features of "Mine Swept":
Control-click, command-click OR right-click to flag mines.
Uses double-click action to reveal the neighbors of a square that you think are safe.
Uses the same color values from the Win32 version.
Custom minefield settings.
Ability to highlight the neighbors of a square (for people with bad eyes like myself)
Option to show a safe square for that first move.
Keeps track of your best time for each of the difficulty levels.
FREE! (well, technically, donation-ware with a nag screen that you can dismiss permanently without paying).
What's New:
Forgot to flip the switch to make Mine Swept a Universal Binary so yeah, for all you Mac-Intel owning fans, Mine Swept should no longer run under Rosetta.
Player is now prevented from flagging more mines than are listed as being hidden (i.e., no more -1 mines left on the field).
