Elixir Games for Mac
Describe the game you want to play and AI builds it, on your own Mac.
- Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer)
- macOS 13 or later
- Paid Claude or ChatGPT plan, or a local model
Version 0.2.0 · 151 MB
The first time you open it
- Open the downloaded file and drag the app to Applications.
- Open it once. macOS says it cannot verify the app and offers Move to Trash or Done: choose Done.
- Go to System Settings, then Privacy & Security, scroll down and choose Open Anyway. Enter your Mac password if it asks.
No Open Anyway there? Talk to us on Discord (opens in a new tab).
The app is not signed with an Apple developer certificate yet, which is why macOS asks. It never updates itself, so a new version is a new download.
The app talks to the AI provider you sign in to. On its own it also asks Elixir Games for its plugin list, and OpenRouter, an AI service it can use, for its public list of models. Publish to Elixir opens this site in your browser. Anything else it fetches only when you ask for it.

How a game gets onto Elixir
You bring the idea
Describe the game you always wanted to play, in your own words. One paragraph is enough.
AI builds it
AI writes the code and you say what to change: in the app on your own Mac, or with us, from our build prompt and kit.
We publish it
Every game is reviewed before it enters the Elixir store. We publish yours on Elixir, cover art and all.
Anyone launches its token
Anyone can launch its token, you included: nobody needs our approval.
Players find it
With its token live, it joins the shelf for anyone to play, and you meet its players on Discord.
The tools
You never touch the code. The app builds with tools of its own; these are ours, and in Season 1 we run them with you.
Build prompt
The brief the AI works from: your idea on top, then how to build, test and finish the game.
