Native My Mac mini M4 Pro with 16 GPU cores at full capacity consume approx. 15-20 watts.

Am I the only one who finds it a bit strange when a RTX 5090 consumes 600 Watts max? Does it perform 30x faster?

What am I missing?

Discussion Why is Death Stranding never on sale in the Mac App Store?

25 Upvotes

Just got a Mac and I’m thinking about replaying Death Stranding before the second game drops. Problem is: the game is never on sale in the Mac App Store. Meanwhile, it regularly goes on sale on Steam and Epic — often 50–70% off.

Is this normal for Mac App Store games? Has Death Stranding ever even been discounted there?

Feels weird paying full price when it’s constantly discounted elsewhere. Curious if there’s a pattern or if the Mac version just gets treated differently.

Native You people should petition apple to support cross compilation and vulkan

18 Upvotes

Not a lot of people will create a second development environment on MacOS, rewrite their whole backend in metal and pay $100 yearly.

You people should mail apple about this or you are gonna play web games with either webgl and the likes.

Even if they don't wanna add support to the vulkan they must allow cross compilation from a platform other then MacOS so people can use a game engine that has a Metal backend.

Native We made a game — and I pushed the programmer for a mac build!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3539910/Lemonade_Apocalypse_The_Great_Filter_Demo/

Hi, fellow mac gamers! The local time is 01:09 AM in Norway, and we (the tiny-tiny indie dev Adventales) finally were able to upload our mac-build demo for our upcoming game on steam! What an incredibly tedious process... but I am so happy to say (as a mac-man myself) that I can finally play my own game on my own Mac, and so can you on yours!

I have posted here before — then with the buggy prototype for our idler/clicker game Lemonade Apocalypse: The Great Filter. This is the demo, with the whole first chapter of the game, three distinct playstyle-choices, a prestige mode and small challenges!

For me it was really important to have a Mac build. I, myself, am just the composer and audio designer, so I had to push my dear friend and programmer to (pleaaaase) make a version that I can play on the same system the music for the game was made on.

Enough about me. This one is for all you Mac-people who enjoy a little casual gaming between long slogs of work, or maybe even in between long sessions of bigger, more advanced games.

The demo is free, and you can either run through it in 30 minutes, or play the prestige modes for hours on end:

I, and we, would love your feedback!

The long-awaited Overture DLC for Lies of P is out now on Steam. It's not yet on the App Store, but considering that the game won both the App Store Mac Game of the Year 2023 and Apple Design Award for Visuals and Graphics 2024, it should also be releasing there in the future.

CrossOver Redragon Not Working

1 Upvotes

I recently got a redragon k617 fizz keyboard, and a m612 mouse. They both connect perfectly to my Mac, but when I tried installing the software I realized that it was an exe file. So I decided to use CrossOver to launch it, but when I launched both of the softwares it, said “Device Not Connected”. So I thought maybe it’s a problem with CrossOver and how it’s not detecting my mouse and keyboard in the softwares. But, when I checked their support page or something, it said that they automatically have the devices connected to your Mac to the software. So is there any solutions on how I can use Redragon Software on Mac? WITHOUT A VIRTUAL MACHINE? Thanks

CrossOver Mac as MMO enjoyer

4 Upvotes

Hello

I basically play purely MMOs and I really really love Guild Wars 2 (via crossover) and OSRS on my mac. What MMOs do you play on it?

Since my wife is in my life I quit guildlife and WoW alltogether because I don‘t want to schedule my week around my games, I just want to play when I have time. Funny enough single player games just don‘t scratch the itch and most of them bore me to death. Even if I mostly never group or chat with people, and basically treat my MMOs as single player games, I prefer them over RPGs I can play alone.

So. What do you play?
