A-OK, a game that simulates the Mercury Spacecraft, was recently updated to run natively in OS X. For those unfamiliar with A-OK, the game is a full-featured simulation, featuring 3D graphics, historically accurate controls and documentation, a Mission Profile editor, and much more.

Here's a snippet from the official press release:

A-OK! The Wings of Mercury simulates America's first spacecraft,
Project Mercury, and opens a new frontier in computer simulations. The operation of every gauge, light and switch in the spacecraft is simulated to a high degree of fidelity. So accurate are the spacecraft systems that users consult reproductions of the actual flight documentation used by the Mercury astronauts. The simulator can generate hundreds of failure scenarios that require split-second decisions to survive. A-OK! The Wings of Mercury ships with A-OK! Mission Control Center,
an application that simulates the consoles at Mercury mission control. A-OK! The Wings of Mercury also ships with a suite of tools that allows users to edit the launch and landing areas, calculate retrofire and ground station contact times and other mission-critical tasks.
