OSX Version of the game

Does anyone have a mac ? None of my family or friends do. Additionally, I am not sure if this is possible without a rewrite of many networking stuff that relies on winsock2.h, Windows.h, and ws2tcpip.h @kamarapala ?

The networking for sure won't work since it's Windows dependent, but I did some quick searching and it looks like macOS comes with unix libraries for sockets. Looking at some sample code, it looks like Winsock is nearly identical to unix sockets so I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to make it capable of running on mac, but it would definitely take time.

I'd definitely have to look into it more but I also don't have access to a macOS machine to develop on.

moving to low priority as it is no longer required for course
