As silly as it sounds, I just can't manage to switch out and back into full-screen games on my MacBook, like Alt–Tab does on Windows. I've tried searching online and found posts saying I should use the ⌘ (Command) key with m or f or Esc, but none of these work… and in general I had some trouble searching for it online since Lion has a new "fullscreen" feature for applications which behaves differently than fullscreen games but is called the same. 🙁
So, is there a way to do this?
Right now I'm relying on the Steam overlay which allows me to access a browser from in-game, but sometimes I want to access other applications and I just can't figure out how.

⌘tab usually is correct.
Unfortunately many games are badly ported - so they often do not support it in full-screen mode. Some games (for me Telltale games) allow to switch to a "window" mode - when you are in that it is typically possible to switch.
