There is a "unofficial" mac patch here, but I can't get it working on 10.5.7. Anyone else get it working?

From the Alien Arena site:

The official MacOS port has been indefinitely postponed. However, apparently someone has indeed ported Alien Arena to the Mac, and released a patch. Download the linux version above, then apply this patch. We cannot guarantee this will work.
