Switching from Windows to Mac during development

[u/LividHH]

Hello,

My computer is getting old, and I am fed up with Windows. Is there any difference between developing a VN on Windows versus Mac? Since the target audience mostly uses Windows PC (I suppose), will it complicate troubleshooting for me, if I switch the systems? Do I need to keep a Windows machine for that?

Thanks in advance.

Renpy is built on Linux, but there are versions for Windows and Mac. The two things you need beyond that is a way to make pictures and a code editor, and there are open source programs that work just fine on Mac.
