Emulation
Guides on emulating older games

In this game, you navigate your hovercraft through a dozen maze-like levels, collecting weapons and upgrades and dodging robot seeker drones. The weapons, rather than simply destroying enemies, have a wide variety of effects that come in useful at different times, and as you reach later levels you will face increasingly fast and smart opponents.

The original Apteryx for Mac OS Classic is currently impossible to find and this is getting harder to find.

Compatibility
Architecture: PPC (Carbonized) x86 (Intel:Mac)

Runs up to OSX 10.10.
The info says "Application (Universal)".
Not sure about El Cap - macOS Sierra is a no go.

Looks interesting. Maybe a skilled gamer adds some better sreenshots?

The hovercraft is also controlled by the cursor arrows.
