Really need this to work on my Mac but no luck so far. Can we donate to make it work on mac?

I really wanted this to work and I appreciate the effort from the developer, however, it is not working for me (I am using a MacBook Pro). When I press the buttons on my SpaceMouse the onscreen menu appears but moving the mouse has no effect
