How to play Radiation Pigeon on Mac
Game summary
Radiation Pigeon is an infinite runner where you play as a pigeon inside a recently nuked Detroit. The aim of the game is to avoid buildings and enemies to last as many meters as you can. Unlike other infinite runners where the camera is stuck to one place you can freely fly up and down in a world about 4 times the height of your view. You can also collect items along the way. You can choose to have items on or off in the pause menu. Your high-score with items on is different from your high-score with items off in order to keep things fair in the leaderboards. You can buy cosmetics with in-game currency such as changing the player into a bat and getting rid of all textures. More enemies, items, and cosmetics will be added in the near future!

Play Radiation Pigeon on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Radiation Pigeon on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
Radiation Pigeon installation steps for Mac
Step 1

When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Radiation Pigeon like you would on any PC.
