GhostDeck is a native macOS music player that uses a hand-written Metal renderer to draw a retro 3D scene with procedural assets, supporting classic Winamp skins and local audio files. It is technically impressive for its custom graphics pipeline and offline, privacy-focused design, but targets a niche audience of retro enthusiasts and macOS users.
