| Very cool project, can't play because on mac but looks like cool approach |

| I have considered getting a Mac in the past (even a very old Air) to make and, most importantly test, Mac builds, but I never got to it and cross-compiling to Mac seems like a pain, if at all possible. If you have a VM laying around though, it should work. A good thing about the approach is that if it compiles, it should work exactly the same everywhere and with predictable/linear performance, no matter the environment or driver situation. |

| ▲ | mvx64 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Didn't know this, but I'd rather not use github to be honest. Isn't there also some kind of signing required to publish a Mac build? | | |

| ▲ | p0w3n3d 2 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | you're right, I wasn't aware of it. Of course you could build it and leave it as is, so we would need to accept the binary, but still - a lot of work. Makes some good projects made by devoted programmers exclusive to other platforms, sadly. |

| It works perfectly cool through wine. Also i think adding mac builds wouldnt be hard given its simple dependencies. |

| ▲ | mvx64 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Yeah it should be just a simple cargo build. But for the same reason it should be playable through any emulator/translation/VM layer as you mentioned. |
