Point-to-aim games ruined by OS mouse cursor bugs

[c0wb3ll]

Hotline Miami, Deadly 30, and No Time To Explain would be great games on Mac OS X, but a critical interface bug reduces their enjoyability to zero.

These games often default to windowed mode instead of fullscreen, and show the OS cursor on top of the in-game cursor. These bugs would be annoying, but bearable. The really nasty bug that accompanies is the game interfaces failing to keep the mouse cursor inside the game screen, resulting in the player often accidentally clicking on other desktop applications. This makes boss fights rather difficult.

Whatever these games are doing wrong in their code, should be easily fixable, as plenty of other point-to-aim action games do not have this problem. (DOTA 2, Team Fortress 2, Don't Starve, Botanicula, and a hundred other point-to-aim games do not have this problem.) It's just a few games that are sloppily made that seem to be affected.

Are any other Steam games affected by this bug behavior? I'm tired of purchasing a game on Steam, only to find out it's unplayable.

CSGO has this bug too.

Ever considered switching to fullscreen mode?

Unfortunately, this nasty bug is present in Fullscreen mode as well.

I don't know how, it just does.
