What your Mac needs
You need a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer): Uncork does not run on Intel Macs.
Steam requirements list at least 8 GB of memory for Heartopia; 16 GB recommended.
An 8 GB Mac is tight; 16 GB is more comfortable.
Allow about 10 GB for the game and another 5 GB for Uncork and Steam (their size in our fresh-install check in October 2026).
Heartopia uses DirectX 11: Uncork renders it with D3DMetal.

What we have not tested
We haven’t run Heartopia ourselves, so we don’t know the frame rate on your Mac and how online play will work.
