Javascript Based Mario 3 Desktop
An indie programmer that goes by the name "shadow" releases his interactive desktop based on the first level of Super Mario Bros. 3 for the SNES. The rendition is pretty faithful and although you can't actually control Mario, you can click on him, the goombas, turtles, and coin blocks - everything is fully animated and doesn't hog CPU resources.
Although Shadow wrote it for the PC, it's in javascript so I don't see why it wouldn't work on a Mac. He even includes a brief how-to on modifying the code. But if you just want something cool for your desktop, download it, set it as your wallpaper and the thing should automatically scale to fit your screen's resolution. ENJOY!
thanks to my buddy gunmetalblue for the linkie
