How to play Viridescent Dragon: Chapter 1 on Mac

Game summary

This is my very first Visual Novel, Viridescent Dragon Chapter 1. (As this is a kinetic visual novel, it is straight-forward and you could just auto-play it like a movie if you'd like. I am considering adding choices in any future chapters/stand-alone novels.) After waking up in a forest, meet Charlotte, the smack-talking, amnesic dragon girl who travels with her friends on a quest to regain her memories... Who is she and where did she really come from? The journey won't be easy, as she will have to conquer many obstacles and find out the hidden truths about the world she travels through, the friends she makes, the reigning monarchs, and the deities that are worshiped... This is the first of many humorous and drama-filled chapters to come. Press the "A" key to Auto play the text. This game is in 1920 x 1080 resolution, in window mode and full screen mode. Sorry, Windows only. Unless you can find a way to play .exe files on something else. Also, be careful, as the game can crash when you close it, as Visual Novelty, the program I used to create this game, is still in its Beta stages. Be sure to save often, just in case. This is the main reason I place this game under "Unstable" Credits Original Story and Character Art by me, Kassidie Butler (Viridea) 2015 Music by Audionautix and AngelHeights SFX by Freesound.org Backgrounds from Pixabay Backgrounds edited with FotoSketcher and Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 Thank you very much, and I hope you enjoy the game!

Play Viridescent Dragon: Chapter 1 on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Viridescent Dragon: Chapter 1 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).

Viridescent Dragon: Chapter 1 installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.

Step 3
