This guide will show you how to install audio game manager and get some games running on the mac.
Disclaimer
This set of instructions may not work for everyone. This has been tested on Catalina and Big Sur.Not all games will work.After the Catalina update, most of the 32-bit support has been removed. This uses wine-crossover, which has 32-bit support but is bigger, and has issues with 64-bit wine prefixes, as far as I know. The only 64-bit game is sequence storm.The automation we use with xdotool is not supported on mac, some installers will require manual intervention.
Homebrew complements macOS (or your Linux system). Install your RubyGems with gem and their dependencies with brew. “To install, drag this icon” no more. Homebrew Cask installs macOS apps, fonts and plugins and other non-open source software. $ brew install -cask firefox. Making a cask is as simple as creating a formula. Brew install wget Homebrew is a package manager for OSX analogous to yum, apt-get, choco, emerge, etc. Be aware that you will also need to install Xcode and the Command Line Tools. Virtually anyone who uses the command line in OSX will want to install these things anyway.
Installation

Open terminal from the utilities folder, and run the following command to install the command line developer tools.
xcode-select --install
