How to play Red Square on Mac
Game summary
"A Yume Nikki Fan Game for the Nintendo Virtual Boy, with programming by Kresna and graphics by Nyrator. A submission created in six weeks for the 2019 Dream Diary Jam.
Play as Nina and explore her dreams, collecting various effects along the way. The ending will become available once Nina has collected all four effects.
This game is written entirely in NEC V810 assembly and is made to be compatible with actual Virtual Boy hardware. Hardware compatibility has been tested by a third party.
The game doesn't feature any sound, as there was not enough time to write an assembly sound driver during the Jam. There is also no saving in the game itself."

Play Red Square on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Red Square 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).
Red Square installation steps for Mac
Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
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 Red Square like you would on any PC.
