If you're a Mac developer willing to help out with this, please get in touch.Ĭurly's World of Freeware has donated a copy of this software and related data to the Classic PC Games catalog. Unfortunately, as none of us in the development team have Macs, we can't really improve the situation.

It's quite funny and helps you to understand the basics of the game (in fact it's not so hard to understand). When you play the game for the first time, you should start with the tutorial. But it's well done and it's "Guitar Hero" for free, so who am I to complain about that? In fact "Frets on Fire" is a "Guitar Hero" clone.
