TEARS OF THE KINGDOM IS NOW RUNNING NATIVELY ON MAC AND IPHONE ๐Ÿšจ

This isn't an emulator. The game's own ARM64 code runs directly on Apple chips, and its Switch graphics are rebuilt on Metal.

Tested on an M4 MacBook Air, it gets around 90 FPS once shaders warm up. It also builds for iPhone 14 and newer, with full touch controls.

The whole port was built with AI. Most of its commits are co-authored by Claude Opus.
