How to play Staroyale on Mac
Game summary
Staroyale is a game of skill, luck, and a game that must be experienced to be fully understood. In Staroyale players pilot their starship in one of several modes, taking on a whole armada of enemy starships. Players must make use of the intuitive controls, upgrade options, skills unique to each starship, and an interactive environment to take down enemy ships or risk being destroyed. Choose a ship and loadout that best suits your play style as each ship comes with its own set of passive and active skills, allowing for different play styles and strategies, with not just one way to victory.

Play Staroyale on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Staroyale 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).
Staroyale 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 Staroyale like you would on any PC.
