How it runs (English only)

Renders with Vulkan, which the host implements on Metal; the main module imports Vulkan, not NVN.

Update 1.0.38233 (v589824), SDK 9.3.0. Supergiant Games' engine on The Forge renderer, on Vulkan, not NVN: main imports 100 vk functions from subsdk0 (the Vulkan loader), which sits on NVIDIA's driver in subsdk1 (NVN, OpenGL, Vulkan). The host implements those functions on Metal itself (dm/gfx/vk/hle_vk.m), so only main and sdk are loaded. Plays on the iPhone.
