Hmm i guess this would require figuring out how to extract game data from an .exe installer GOG distributes. I guess AI would figure it out in like 3 minutes ;) I’ll check later.

I wondered if innoextract was Linux only, but I see there is a homebrew formula.

Interestingly, wine works on Apple Silicon via Rosetta2 so I guess it won't work by macOS 28, and we will be only left with arm64 DOSBox-X.

There was a tool that would take a GOG installer and extract it.
