You dont have to boot Linux to play PC games on Mac.

Apple already provides the tools you need to build a Mac native equivalent to Proton.

There are several options built using those tools, both paid {Crossover) and free/open source (Whisky).

Whisky combines the same ooen source Wine project that Proton leverages with Apple's Rosetta x86 emulation and Apple's DirectX emulation layer (part of the Game Porting Toolkit) into a single easy to use tool.
