I was playing my shiny new Mac copy of Goo when a friend called and needed me to look something up online.  I alt-tabbed out (very nice!  it automatically went to windowed mode) and sent him where he wanted to go.  Then I went back and made WorldOfGoo.app active, then picked the "Toggle Full Screen" command.  The game came back but I didn't have any cursor.

It's not a big deal, just cmd-Q and relaunch and everything was fine, but I did lose my game-in-progress.

Thanks for the fun game!

I can confirm this bug. When I replaced the demo with the full game, starting the full game landed me in windowed mode. Toggling to full screen, I had no visible cursor.

I had the same bug but I found out that if I keep moving my cursor (continuosly) while returning in the game (by alt-tab), the cursor will be there.

I see this as a mini-fix  ;)

Noticed this also. The cursor's invisible; if you can find your way to the menu and click, it should appear again.

[=10pt][=10pt][=10pt]Your cursor will appear normally if, when you toggle back to full screen mode, your POINTER is located INSIDE[b][i][/i][/b] the World of Goo window and you use the keyboard shortcut ([i][b]Command F[/b][/i]).[/][/][/]
