hey, I just got it working on my M1 mac (my method should work for all apple silicon macs, so M1-M5. intel macs should just be able to play without any issue). I thought I'd list out my steps just in case it might help anyone else. if you get stuck you can dm me @onarity on discord though I could take days or weeks to respond.

Step 1: When you have the folder, you first want to open terminal and set the directory as the folder, which means entering a command like cd '/Users/(yourname)/(Folder1)/(Folder2)/CrystalDesiresFinalMac (numbers)'. To find your own, open the folder, click "View" on the menu bar in the top left of your screen, click show path bar, and then you can see the path at the bottom of finder. If you right click the crystal desires folder name at the end of that path, you can click Copy CrystalDesiresFinalMac (numbers) as pathname, then in terminal just write cd and then paste what you had copied. As I said before, your terminal command should look something like cd '/Users/(yourname)/(Folder1)/(Folder2)/CrystalDesiresFinalMac (numbers)'.

Step 2: You now need to download Rosetta 2 if you haven't already. Disclaimer: If you download it, it might be really hard/impossible to uninstall, so it's your responsibility to check whether this is something you're okay with doing (imo there's 0 downsides but I'm just warning you of that fact). 

To install, rosetta 2, run:

/usr/bin/pgrep oahd >/dev/null || softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license

If you get no response, I think that means you already have it. 

Step 3: Make the stuff executable

chmod +x Game.app/Contents/MacOS/nwjs

then

chmod -R +x Game.app/Contents/MacOS
chmod -R +x Game.app/Contents/Frameworks

also, I don't know if this is needed as I just did it anyway but remove the quarantine:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine Game.app

I can't find a mac download option in the first place, cos the apple icon one is iOS/android. I can confirm though that it seems to work fine for me if you download the windows version, then get https://github.com/m5kro/RPG-Maker-MacOS-Launcher  , then open that rpg maker launcher app (if it struggles learn how to bypass gatekeeper) and install latest nwjs version from "install nwjs version", select game folder (u can also export as standalone app if u want) then click start game. Hope this helps
