Yeah I hope this is a trendBetween this and No Man's Sky coming to Macs, this is turning into a surprisingly good year for Mac gaming.
Problem is most gamers will never migrate to the Apple ecosystem because Macs are not upgradable and have poor repairability. And Apple doesn't help: Apple Arcade is a total failure. Games like Stray could be added to Apple Arcade, but to be played in what devices? Apple TV 4K and most iPhones and iPads have only 4GB of RAM.
As for the Stray game, it has a Overwhelmingly Positive review on Steam. I'd like to play it on my iPad Pro M1.
About time. I really wish the MAC version was released along with other formats at the same time. I'm not sure why it's so difficult to do this. The demand is there. STEAM has proved that MAC users want games too. As a result of the lack of MAC support, I'm about to purchase a STEAM DECK and be done with wanting games on MAC.
How about over 100k definitions?
Stray Reviews
Lost, alone and separated from family, a stray cat must untangle an ancient mystery to escape a long-forgotten cybercity and find the way home. Stray is a third-person cat adventure game set amidst the detailed neon-lit alleys of a decaying cybercity and the murky environments of its seedy...

Maybe now I’ll finally be able to play as a black cat. So unbelievably silly of Annapurna Interactive to not include alternative hides on console.

I love when Apple employees comment! LolBetween this and No Man's Sky coming to Macs, this is turning into a surprisingly good year for Mac gaming.
It’s absolutely delightful. It’s kinda short, but delightful none the less.
Now I really believe Apple will bring finally AAA games to MAC, may also to ARCADE. No Man’s Sky, Stray, WWDC next week and Apple Arcade got 4 weeks ago new games (Updates doesn’t count)
It was very popular. When it came out the game streamers were all over it. I bought 3 copies on release day. 1 for me, and 1 for each of my two nieces. It was probably one of the most popular indie games on the last 5-10 years.
the decades long desperate wails of those insisting every crumb of old mid tier releases is evidence that gaming on mac is finally happening is, if nothing else, an impressive feat of breath control
unity and unreal can compile the same windows game to mac with metal. opengl sucks.
It can do games. It's getting developers to make them that's the issue.
Have you tried Steam streaming games from your PC to your iPad? It works remarkably well if you can (ethernet) cable both devices. Of course, it won't be as good as natively on the PC, but you'd be surprised.

No. But I tried Xbox Cloud Gaming and played Microsoft Flight Simulator streamed from cloud on my iPad Pro, quality was good, but worse than on my Xbox Series X.
Open that game and play it right meow! 😾
Loved this game. Immersive atmosphere, a cyberpunk dream, cute story. One of the games on PS5 that felt "next-gen" to me.
Looks good. I think what some developers are missing is the fact that a game such as this might have a higher % of Mac users because of the scarcity of this type of content. There are plenty of Macs in use, so the audience should be sizable.
