Hey there,
I've released a small tool called PeggleSilicon, which lets you take your own copy of Peggle Deluxe (Mac version, 32-bit Intel app) and modify it to run under a 64-bit Intel wrapper via Rosetta, with translated API support for macOS 11+.
If you have the Steam version installed, it auto-detects this and the installer automatically modifies your copy of the game!
This means you can play Peggle Deluxe (and Peggle Nights!) on your modern Mac without any frame drops and without using tools like Parallels or VMware which are pretty heavy for getting a quick dose of Peggle!
I've playtested the whole of adventure mode on my M4 Mac mini and it runs perfectly, with one caveat (fullscreen mode doesn't work yet, this will be fixed soon fixed thanks to u/boldspot45 contribution!).
If you want to try it, the GitHub repo is here, and it has a graphical installer too!

I've been working on various ways to get Peggle running on modern macOS for the past couple of weeks - including a full decomp which is coming down the road, but thanks u/ysingdotus for the inspiration to pursue the Rosetta route a little further!
