🖥 M1: Mac mini 16GB no Rosetta 2 2560 x 1440 Very responsive in the few seconds before a crash, Tried both the default download for macOS, as well as sideloading the version for iOS. iOS version fails to launch, macOS version starts but crashes quickly on a new game or a saved game. Very odd since this is an Apple Arcade game and "should" work. reddit Apple Arcade
💻 M1: MacBook Pro 13" 16GB Menus work perfectly, but the game shows a black screen once you load into the world. CrossOver

Used default graphical settings., Steam
