How to play Late Shift on Mac

How to play Late Shift on your Mac

1. 01

   Install it from Steam

   Open Steam on your Mac and install Late Shift as normal. Steam serves the macOS build automatically. No compatibility layer, and nothing else to set up.

2. 02

   If the native build does not run

   Some older Mac ports were never updated past 32-bit and stopped working at macOS Catalina. If that turns out to be the case here — or you need the Windows build for Windows-only mods — Pixel Port runs the Windows version, graded playable on Apple Silicon.
