I'd check out the game, but I don't use Firefox on my Mac :/ anyways I'm not convinced the visuals are your issue, I think you really need a good pitch at this point, as only a really niche group is going to be interested anyways, and most of those don't care about graphics to much.mobdro tubemate

I'd check out the game, but I don't use Firefox on my Mac.

It was Firefox only a few years back when the two engines had too many discrepancies.
Starlords3K now runs in Chrome and the Chrome clones like Brave and Edge.

Have not tested it in Safari lately, but I suspect it will not.
