How To Turn Scratch Projects Into .dmg For Mac! Neeeeed Heellp Quickly

I Am Doing Some Homework For My Social Studies Class And It Is Extra Credit But I Still Wanna Get A Good Grade, So I Have Decided To Make A Extra Credit Project. The Problem Is That I Am Making A Video Game For Extra Credit Using Scratch (since You Can Do Almost Anything And That We Are Learning About Ancient Mesopotamia) And You See The Computers There At My School Use Macs And I Own Windows (and One Macbookpro For Educational Use) And I Was Thinking If There Were A Way To Convert Scratch Projects Into .dmg Kinda Like How You Turn A Scratch Project Into .exe. If There Isn't Anyway To Do This Please Tell Me How To Turn Scratch Projects Into Some Other File Format That Macs Can Use! Please Answer Fast Since My Extra Credit Was Supposed To Be Done On Friday, But My Teacher Kindly Excused Me To Bring My Extra Credit On Monday Instead. Please Help, Fast!!!

You could download Scratch on the Mac and open your scratch project there.

You could use something from this thread or just upload the project.  Try using .jar, not .app, because your school computers are probably locked down so you can't open unauthorized .app applications.  But do both just in case.  If all else fails, upload the project and talk to your teacher about it.  I'm sure they'll understand if they're nice enough to give you an extra weekend.

If you are having trouble with simple counting, use the following mnemonic device: 1 comes before 2 comes before 5,280 comes before 523,860,759 comes after the square root of -153 comes before π. This will make your previous counting problems seem like no big deal.

A .dmg is an archive like a .zip.

You could just upload it online. Or if you want it offline, what you want is an .app or a .jar.

I can't find the .app, so use this .sb>.jar converter.

here.

and if you want an .app, go to "jar bundler". it's preinstalled on your computer.

it's in macintosh hd>usr>share>java>Tools>Jar Bundler.app and just run it.

use your .jar file and any icon (icon is actually not needed) and make it into an app if you want.
