Jellyfish Tank
First off, I wanted to comment that this is truly an impressive application that deserves more than a 'screensaver' classification. With the quality of graphics and simulated life (not to mention the nature preservation and wildlife ethics behind the branding), I'm actually surprised this app didn't start out on the Mac in the first place :-) I'm so impressed by this program, that I plan to pick up several Mac and PC versions for Xmas gifts (hint to offer Holiday quantity discounts)...
Now from your site I was pleased to discover that jellyfish are slated for a "future version", but if there's anything that can be done to accelerate that, I truly believe it will be worthwhile to you. I think that there's a signficantly large 'audience' of users out there who have an almost religious fascination with jellyfish in particular. I'm one who is mesmorized by bioluminescent (sp?) ones and can watch them for hours at the public aquarium... Now THAT would be awesome... a simulated deep sea tank with a group (or customizable variety) of bioluminescing jellyfish that glow, flicker and undulate!
Personally, I would be willing to pay extra for a jellyfish version as a separate application altogether, or even at ten bucks higher than the current shipping PC fish tank version. Not to sound arrogant, but a recent industry market study did show Mac users to be more creative, better educated, have higher incomes, and are willing to pay more for a higher overall quality standard... Just some things to think about as you poll around and analyze the market for jellyfish-lovers. ;-)
Hope this is somewhat persuasive to higher more programmers. =)
