    You can use WINE to run it.

    /\ As he said.

    Go to the AOS Wiki and read up about playing with WINE.

    It is very easy and is not as hard as many think.

    Give it a go! You have nothing to lose :)

    What happens when you try to install it? Are you sure you're downloading the correct file?(if there even is more than one, I've always gotten it from the ubuntu package manager)

    There is most likely no Mac version right now, because the game is just started getting in demand, and it works almost as well to use Wine; Ben could just be thinking that he should get bigger things done before adding an app for it. Perhaps later in this games developmental stages, Ben will add a .app version available for download.

    This game would suck on an iPhone. Too small screen, not to mention glitchy controls. Any variant of FPS on the iPhone is bad. Not sure about the iPad though. I haven't really played an FPS games on them yet.

    @Lexy: .app is the file MACs use. I think you got it confused with .ipa, the i/Phone/PT/Pad.

    Right. I forgot. I don't use my mac, like ever. It's literally a paper weight right now.

    I dont know if there will ever be mac support. It is kinda of a waste of time to develop on a machine that consist of less than 10% of the total market share.

    I am running Ace of Spades on my mac right now and its supaa fun! I use wine to run it but I found installing the app itself is not enough: you have to install it through terminal also. These links are some good tutorials to setting up AoS:

    MAC users are bad with technology, guys... Thats why they use macs. Its the Wii of the computer world (not that there is anything wrong with a Wii)

    1. Mac is not for games. In fact, Mac could be described as completely useless waste of horrible amount of money.
    2. Game was put together few weeks ago.

    I wonder if I should use Wine on my mac... Then mabye it could stop being a paper weight and host my Server instead.

    Hey macfriends, maybe you should buy something that can run games instead of an expensive fashion accessory

    The name Brojangles (emphasis on bro) and the term macfriends makes me think badly of you.

    @Lexsym
    depending on if it's an intel mac or not, install Windows on it if it's being a paperweight.
