| Compatibility layer | ||
| CrossOver | Stable 120FPS, even with high object count levels.[3] | |

| Parallels | Stable 120FPS, even with high object count levels. Has higher audio latency though, use CrossOver if you can.[4] |
Other information
- Game appears to be locked to 60FPS on all Macs - Apple Silicon or Intel.
- The game still runs on OpenGL for graphics, which means it'll run on non-Metal legacy Macs if you really wanted it to.
