README excerpt
Windows-only Steam games on Apple Silicon, right inside the Steam you already use. 
 Same library. Same Play button. No bottles, no second launcher.
## What it does
| | |
|---|---|
| **Plays natively inside Steam** | Windows games sit in your Mac Steam library and start with Play, like Mac games. |
| **DirectX 12 on Metal** | Apple's Game Porting Toolkit 4 (D3DMetal) runs DirectX 11 and 12 on your Mac's GPU. |
| **DLSS, answered by MetalFX** | Games see a DLSS-capable card, so the option shows up. Apple's MetalFX does the upscaling, and DLSS Frame Generation runs on MetalFX interpolation. |
| **Up to 3× the frames** | Built-in frame generation (2×, 3×, adaptive) for any game, native Mac games included, switched on per game from Steam's properties. |
| **Any controller** | DualSense, Xbox, GameSir and other pads work without a mapping screen. |
| **Full Retina** | Games draw at your display's real resolution. |
| **One-click install** | Open the installer and a Setup Assistant handles Rosetta, Steam and permissions. |

## Already playing
Verified on a MacBook Pro with M5 Max and Game Porting Toolkit 4.0 beta 3, each averaging above 90 fps as measured by the developer. Settings are the ones each game launched with, read from its launch log.

 Games with kernel-level anti-cheat do not run. 
### Compatibility list
Every game tested so far, and the Mac it ran on, is at bridgeplay.dev/compatibility. It combines results a maintainer checked (`compat/`), one-tap reports from players, and CrossOver ratings from AppleGamingWiki for games nobody has tried with Bridgeplay yet.
To add yours: after you play, Bridgeplay asks once per game *How did it run?* One tap posts the result, with your Mac and the game's log, to Compatibility reports. No GitHub account needed, and the log is stripped of your user, computer and Steam account details. **Report Your Games…** in the Prefix menu covers everything you've already played. Without the app, use the Game report form.
## Install
1. **Download the installer** from bridgeplay.dev. About 570 MB, with the engine and graphics already inside.
2. **Open `Install.command`.** macOS blocks it the first time: open **System Settings > Privacy & Security**, scroll down, click **Open Anyway** and confirm with your password or Touch ID.
