      @Novalis there will most likely never be an "executable" (aka .app) made for MacOS. However, there are still some options you could look into. Depending on the age of the Macbook, you could run Windows on Bootcamp. Bootcamp allows you to run Windows on a Macbook pre-2020 (not on the Macbook M1 chip version). I'd suggest looking up videos or read official documentation so you have an idea of what that would look like. Windows will allow you to run (x86) applications and utilize DirectX. Keep in mind, may experience a lot of lag on integrated graphics from a Macbook.

      Altertivenately you could invest time in learning Wine. It's way more advanced but would possibly allow you to play Plutonium on MacOS. Just keep in mind, MacOS Catalina only runs in (x64) mode and does not support (x86) applications (which Plutonium is).

        A Mac version perhaps not a thing, however I just tried on a virtual environment and it works for me on Mac (M2, but also tested it on a 2017 Intel Macbook pro), here's the proof: https://youtu.be/g1mGHHAGra4 just installed Crossover and the proper libraries...
