Developers are focusing on Windows only for the time being. (because everything else is bad)

I've heard of a few users getting it to run on Wine, and Bootcamp will work. Not worth downloading if you don't have high end hardware though. As in you'll need a newer Macbook Pro. Don't expect dev support though, this is something they've said they won't help with.

Try using windows emulation software like bootcamp, you might have some issues with drivers, etc. but its probably the best you can get on a mac. SilentJacket tried to do a Wine Wrapper, but he gave up: https://community.pl...rting-thoughts/

As to why_ The dominant use of DirectX and the current "unfriendliness" of OpenGL

Really, it's a matter of resources.  I'm sure the devs would love to get it on all possible platforms, but right now, Windows is their primary focus while the game is still unfinished.

But if you think you can help SilentJacket out, by all means, contact him and see.  However, from the post that Arnie linked to, it would seem that it's something at an OS level that is causing the problem, not at the Wine layer.

(I don't mean to necro threads, I'm just almost always running behind.  My apologies)

One way to do it may just be installing boot camp or use VMWare

Me too bro - iMac 27" 2013 model 1gb graphics.... sexeh but I installed a W8 bootcamp partition to run games and omg it works amazingly well.
Basically the best of both worlds and for a 1gb graphics/8gb ram its running every game on ultra settings thanks to Apple's proprietry hardwar specs.... unbelievable!
