Sketchfighter sadly seems to be unplayable on my machine - I suspect either due to it being a Retina MBP or something to do with the latest version of Mac OS X. Equally bad in both fullscreen and windowed.

I doubt there's patches/support still ongoing for it, but, figured I'd submit it anyways. It's a shame, really felt like pulling it out again for the first time in a while!

When it isn't quite this late, I'll find my copy of SF4k and try it under 10.8.2. Will get back to you then.
At last he came to a door, with these words in glowing emeralds: THE END OF THE WORLD. He did not hesitate. He opened the door and stepped through.

did you try get info on the app binary and setting it to retina compatibility mode?

I was not even aware such a setting existed. That was a surprisingly easy fix!

Thanks rudy!
