One of three titles released for Mac as part of the Digital Arcade Collector's Series, by Digital Eclipse. They later abandoned the Mac and made a reputation emulating classic arcade games in various compilations for PCs and consoles. This is where they got their start.
The Joust application can simply be run by itself, or if you feel the need for Macromedia animation before you start your game, click on "Digital Arcade." The game itself is more reliable under different Mac OS's than the animated menu is!
Also in the series were Williams' Defender and Robotron: 2084.
Compatibility'030 20MHz or higher, 4MB RAM, System 6.0.7, color or grayscale monitor

Used to play this every day before kindergarten on an old Performa. Brings back memories!
There were also similar standalone versions of Defender and Robotron, I believe. For mac. This is where Digital Eclipse got their start in emulating the classics.
