GhostDeck plays your own music files in the classic late-'90s deck layout, with a ten-band EQ and a playlist that snap together. Behind your album, a jewel case turns over one of five low-poly worlds that move to the music. Native Metal, offline, no tracking.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Djordje, the maker of GhostDeck.
I keep my music as files, FLAC and MP3, and every Mac player I tried was either a huge library manager or a list with a play button. I missed the players I grew up with, and I love late-'90s low-poly graphics, so I built the player I wanted.
What it does:
- The classic deck layout: main deck, ten-band EQ and playlist as separate windows that dock together like magnets, pixel font and all.
- A 3D pane where your album cover becomes a jewel case turning over one of five low-poly worlds that react to the music: synthwave, a moonlit forest, dunes with a chrome skull, a rainy neon city and a deep sea. Each world reskins the deck.
- FLAC, MP3, AAC, ALAC, WAV and AIFF. Version 1.1 adds FLAC tags and embedded covers, gapless albums and a low power mode.
How it's made: native Swift and a hand-written Metal renderer, no engine and no web view. Almost everything is generated on your Mac at launch, so the app is about 12 MB. No account, no analytics, no network access at all.
It's a one-time purchase on the Mac App Store, no subscription.
Those 1.1 features came straight from r/macapps feedback, and next up are classic .wsz skins. I'd love to hear which world you'd want next, and I'll answer every comment today!
