Bootcamp is your friend. ;)

For the moment, your best bet is to install a windows partition on your mac (not in VM!!) and reboot when you want to play.
It is what I am actually doing and it works without problem.

There might be a mac version of the game at some point, but I don't know if this will happen as long as we are in beta :)

I'm also using a mac (bootcamp) and it works perfectly ;) You can use a virtual machine but you'll need at least 8GB of RAM.

I have 16GB of Ram on mine + a good graphic card, but in a VM, it stays slow as graphic card is not "virtualized" correctly ;)
Best solution is Bootcamp if you want performance :)

Weird... A friend of mine plays games in parallels desktop and everyting looks fine ;) But I think you're right, if you want to play games, bootcamp is the best solution.
