What Malbec does for Deadlock
- Gives it its own settings for graphics, mouse and display.
- Reads your mouse directly instead of waiting for the macOS pointer.
- Hides DirectX 12 if the game offers it, so it runs in DirectX 11 on Metal.
- Turns on macOS Game Mode while you play.
- Keeps the shaders the game builds between sessions.
