> Experimental native port of Tears of the Kingdom for Apple silicon Macs, iPads and iPhones: the game's ARM64 code runs directly and NVN commands are translated to Metal. It lets you run your own v1.4.3 game dump without an emulator.

## Useful for

- Launch a saved game on an Apple silicon Mac via launch.command
- Build and install a developer-signed build on an M1+ iPad
- Check performance and shader activity with the ⌘P overlay

## Why it’s here

- There are not enough fresh counter measurements for today's UTC day. The gain is unknown.
- The repository is 2 days old and already has 116 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #155.
- About 16 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 17
- Issues and pull requests: 1
- Watchers: 1
- Average over the last week: 52 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)

## Stars per day, last 3 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
