MAC FREEZING AFTER 10 minute game play?
I have just bought the MacBook Air M2 Chip 2023 and when I open my computer to play the game. It loads fine, I can be in create mode for a long time but when I go to live mode it starts to glitch and...

also it is doing it with every single save I do ☹️
Ok. Create a new user account on your Mac and start a new game in that account https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchl3e281fc9/mac this is to rule out any app or background processes in your current user account that could be interfering with the running of the game.
It may also be worth monitoring processes when this happens in your current user account:
- Open Activity Monitor (Applications > Utilities)
- Sort by CPU in the button at the top so the highest CPU usage is at the top in descending order
- Launch the game in windowed mode, make the game window small and have the Activity Monitor window next to it so you can see both windows simultaneously
- When it freezes make a note of the top 2 or 3 processes. If you could screenshot it and post the screenshot here that would be great
Checking in Activity Monitor shows if anything 3rd party maybe interfering with the game such as antivirus or monitoring software or streaming services. Do you have anything like that installed?
