    People being the people making the games.

    Apple’s love affair with Metal and the utter lack of Vulkan support for ages on Apple silicon slowed down/totally killed anyone porting games.

    This really didn’t get sorted out until pretty recently, and shit’s gotten better in the last six months or a year.

    Hopefully it keeps getting ports and such, but it took WAY too damn long to even be in a position for this to start happening.

      Yep this is the real reason - Apple is so hostile towards developers and no support outside of proprietary Metal API it’s no surprise there are few games.
