 I believe that if this game were made for, not only the PC, but also for a Mac system it would become, not the most popular game, but it would probably increase it's popularity exponentially. 

What is everybody else's opinion on the subject? And is there even a glimmer of hope that this game will be Mac accessible as well?

if the graphics were written in openGL instead of directX, it would be easy to put it on multiple platforms.  and yes, that is an over simplification, but directX is impossible to port without using a windows emulator (wine, cedaga or crossover).  if you already wrote the graphics data to use the openGL drives(ALL platforms support openGL)  then if you want to port the game to a different platform, you don't need to rewrite the graphics, just ensure that you have binaries for the new platform.
