Heads up: Shadow streams the game but doesn't include a copy β€” you'll still need to own Bunny Guys! on a supported store (AllKeyShop).

Bunny Guys!

Climb, fall, curse… uh, respawn, pretend it was intentional. Bunny Guys is pure parkour chaos where one wins and everyone else fails spectacularly. Perfect for players who treat suffering, respawning, and β€œI can do better” as a hobby.

There is no reliable local route on Apple Silicon. A Windows 11 ARM VM in Parallels may also work.

How to run Bunny Guys! on Mac with Shadow

GoodΒ· Streaming

Streaming Bunny Guys! through Shadow is the fastest way to start playing on a Mac β€” there's nothing to install, no Windows VM, no compatibility layer. The game runs on a remote GPU and your Mac just receives the video, which means even a base M1 MacBook Air can play the most demanding AAA titles at high settings. The tradeoff is that you need a stable internet connection (ideally wired or 5GHz Wi-Fi with 25+ Mbps down) and a subscription.

Step-by-step

  1. Subscribe to Shadow PC β€” a full Windows cloud PC.
  2. Install the Shadow macOS app.
  3. Install Steam / your launcher inside Shadow, then install Bunny Guys!.

How to run Bunny Guys! on Mac with CrossOver

EstimateΒ· Compatibility

Running Bunny Guys! through CrossOver translates its Windows DirectX calls into Metal on Apple Silicon β€” no reboot, no Windows license, no virtual machine. Most setup time is spent on first-time bottle configuration and installing the game launcher (Steam, Epic, etc.) inside CrossOver. Once that's done, launching feels close to native. Expect 15–30 minutes of setup on the first run.

Step-by-step

Step 1 β€” Create a bottle

  1. Open CrossOver β†’ click New Bottle
  2. Name it after the game (e.g. Bunny Guys!) and choose Windows 10 64-bit
  3. Open the bottle's Settings and set:

- Graphics: D3DMetal (not DXVK)

- Synchronization: ESync

- High Resolution Mode: Off

Step 2 β€” Install the game launcher

  1. Inside CrossOver, click Install Application β†’ search for Steam (or Epic Games Launcher if you own it there)
  2. Install it into the same bottle you just created
  3. Launch Steam, log in, and let it fully update before proceeding

Step 3 β€” Install and launch Bunny Guys!

  1. Open Steam (or your launcher) inside CrossOver
  2. Install Bunny Guys! through the launcher as normal
  3. Launch the game β€” use the launcher's Play button, not CrossOver directly
  4. First launch may take 30–90 seconds to show a window. Don't force-quit unless it hangs for several minutes.

Step 4 β€” If you hit issues

  • Black screen / stuck in small window: go to Settings β†’ Graphics in-game, set Screen Type to Fullscreen, then restart
  • Resolution resets on every launch: find the game's config/settings file and set the resolution values manually, then mark the file Read-Only to prevent the game overwriting it
  • Crashes on startup: try switching the bottle's Synchronization from ESync to MSync, or vice versa

How to run Bunny Guys! on Mac with Parallels

EstimateΒ· Compatibility

Using Parallels to play Bunny Guys! means running a full copy of Windows 11 ARM inside macOS. This is the most "it just works" approach for games that don't behave under CrossOver, and DirectX 11 is hardware-accelerated. You'll need a Windows license and roughly 80 GB of disk space.

Step-by-step

  1. Buy / start a trial of Parallels Desktop.
  2. Install Windows 11 ARM via the one-click wizard.
  3. Inside Windows, install Steam / Xbox app and Bunny Guys!.
  4. Enable DirectX 11 in Parallels settings for best 3D performance.

The game runs on a remote GPU and your Mac just receives the video, which means even a base M1 MacBook Air can play the most demanding AAA titles at high settings. The tradeoff is that you need a stable internet connection (ideally wired or 5GHz Wi-Fi with 25+ Mbps down) and a subscription.

Step-by-step

  1. Install Moonlight on your Mac and Sunshine (or GeForce Experience) on a host PC.
  2. Pair the devices, then stream Bunny Guys! from the host.
