2 months ago I'm guessing you're running in a VM (or a Hackintosh setup), and not actually running on Apple hardware, since some quick googling finds only results containing NSGL: Failed to find a suitable pixel format when someone is using a VM. I would suggest either running Liftoff on whatever host is running the virtualization, or downloading and editing one of the pre-generated templates: https://github.com/libgdx/gdx-liftoff-demo (Java) or https://github.com/libgdx/gdx-liftoff-demo-kotlin (Kotlin).
Please ensure you have given all the following requested information in your report.
