United States"Named as iPad Game of the Year for a reason, Osmos is a fantastic game. A combination of physics, survival and classic eat em up" -- WeDoCode Enter the absorbing world of Osmos: part ambient, cosmic simulator, and part Darwinistic game of survival. This multi-award-winning game features beautiful, physics-based gameplay, dreamlike visuals, and an atmospheric electronic soundtrack. Your goal is to grow by absorbing smaller motes, but to propel yourself you must eject matter behind you, causing you to shrink. From this fundamental balance, Osmos leads the player through ambient playgrounds, deep solar systems, competitive petri dishes, dense mote-fields, and more. Key features: * Progress from serenely ambient levels into varied and challenging worlds. (47 levels plus bonus content.) * Confront attractors, repulsors and intelligent motes with similar abilities and goals as you. * Procedural content: play random versions of any level. * Sublime electronic soundtrack by Loscil, Gas/High Skies, Julien Neto, Biosphere, and more. * 11 glorious achievements. * Dynamic time-warping: slow down the flow of time to outmaneuver agile opponents; speed it up to raise the challenge. * Retina display support. * 5 languages: English, French, German, Spanish and Italian. Accolades: * Winner of the IGF D2D Vision award. * Winner of the "Best in Show" and "Fun/Compelling" awards at IndieCade. * Independent Games Festival finalist in three categories: Seumas McNally Grand Prize, Excellence in Design and Technical Excellence * Selected as one of the 2009 PAX 10 * ...and chosen by many websites in their best-of-year lists. Reviews: "a beautiful, absorbing experience… brilliant to look at… the best videogame music I've heard… will make you forget your cares and immerse you in the game… you'll find yourself returning for the experience." -- Editor’s Choice Award, IGN "wonderful gameplay… beautifully polished and tantalizingly atmospheric… Osmos mixes puzzle, action and strategy remarkably and all the while does it with great finesse and style." -- indiegames.com "beyond doubt, a work of genius... a relaxing, meditative experience about going with the flow... It all adds up to something otherworldly and just . . . incredible." -- GameAndPlayer.net "an almost transcendental video game experience… a stellar example of electronic music's potential impact on indie video game production." -- londonfuse.ca

This would make a great animated backgound and/or screensaver.
United StatesUpdated version is a slug
I played this years ago when it was new and 32-bit, and it ran smooth as silk even on low-end Macs. I read about how it needed work to get it updated to 64-bit MacOS, and I saw that it was now compatible so I'm trying it again. But something must have gone awry with the update. While it's stil the same game, it runs very sluggish on my high-end '18 macbook pro. I quit all other apps, and yet it sometimes drops to what looks like under 10 frames a second. Animations get so coarse that it's almost impossible to control to at times. I think the dev needs to go back and optimize this game because it's really not very playable in its current state.
United StatesRefund Please...Game Doesn't Work
Purchased the game. Installed the game. Tried to run the app and get a "Game Ended Unexpectedly" error. Re-running the game doesn't fix the problem. Brand new MacBook Pro i9, 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD, AMD Radeon 5500 and the game won't run. I'll take a refund please.
United StatesCrashes if open from app store but not from Finder
Crashes immediately if you open from App Store, but to make it work, just find it in Finder>Applications and open it from there.
United StatesDoesn't work on big sur
I'm getting a segmentation fault on Big Sur. BOOOOO
United StatesSlow moving arcade game, not much variation
About six puzzles into the game I was already too bored to continue. It's more an arcade-type game than puzzle because there's nothing to figure out, you just chase blobs around the screen VERY SLOWLY. Each level was basically the same.
United StatesApp crashes on Catalina
First time it loaded very slowly then next time it got stuck on loading audio files and the same every time after that.
