I basically have nothing to do at work for about three weeks and want to play some games but all I have is a Macbook to use there

Don't gotta go out of your way to see if something is Mac compatible, I can just go down the suggestions list tomorrow

This War of Mine is on sale for $4.00 *until* tomorrow (oddly enough). That's a wonderful game as long as you don't mind being horribly depressed

A surprisingly large amount of games are Mac compatible. Here's some of my favorites you can keep coming back to that are pick up and play

Dustforce- Like Super Meat Boy but harder, more fluid and more technical

Risk of Rain- Sidescrolling rogue like with heavy emphasis on combat. Levels are not procedurally generated but the level chosen is random. The longer you spend completing a level the more difficult the enemies become

Speedrunners- 2d platform racing game that is ridiculously fast, technical and has Mario Kart like weapons

Awesomenauts- My favorite game ever, I hate to admit. An easy to learn but ridiculously deep sidescrolling 3v3 2D MOBA. Great character design, every Naut is super unique, great balance, but be warned the majority of the players have hundreds of hours. Should be a bit less of a brick wall now that it is F2P. Matches are about 20 minutes

Steamworld Heist- 2D steampunk X-COM that is better than it sounds

The Swapper- This one isnt exactly pick up and play but I want to mention it because it is fantastic anf needs more exposure. 2D Metroidvania of sorts with extremely heavy emphasis on puzzles with an outstanding mechanic where you clone yourself and swap bodies with your clones

Speedrunners

Only game listed so far that I've played. I wasn't all that enamored with Speedrunners. I guess maybe it's good and I'm just not the right demographic, but I tended to find the game frustrating rather than rewarding. As opposed to other speedrunning oriented games like, say, Cloudbuilt, where I'm frustrated by the difficulty, but still enjoy the game.

Risk of Rain is one of my favorite games ever, but unless things have changed it's horribly optimized and doesn't run nearly as well as it should on lower-power machines.

Second the swapper. One of my favorite puzzle games ever.

Banished is a town survival simulator, and I usually don't enjoy those kinds of games.

Sunless Sea is a text-heavy roguelike in a steampunk lovecraftian universe. You play as a ship captain in the late 1800s, exploring the Unterzee after London has fallen into the earth and exposed a weird world underneath.

Song of the Deep is a charming metroidvania where you play as a young girl in a makeshift submarine looking for her father.

Nah Undertale is great.

Also can't believe I forgot FTL. But really any roguelike will do, just pick your poison. Binding of Isaac, Necrodancer, etc.
