Thrive is now officially available for macOS!
As we hinted at in recent progress updates, we have been working in the background on making a Thrive build that is fully supported on Mac. And that work has now been completed and there’s a fully signed and notarized version of Thrive for macOS. This should work on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, however most testing has been done on Apple Silicon, as that’s the more likely platform capable of running Thrive well. It is possible to run Thrive on older Intel Macs, but you will need to use a lot of resolution upscaling to get reasonable FPS.
Note: that the zip download has issues with the Thrive Launcher not being able to run the bundled Thrive version when downloaded app protection kicks in. To avoid that the itch app is recommended for downloading.
