Here are the parts that appear to be errors:
-- Could NOT find PNG (missing: PNG_LIBRARY PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR)
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1365 (file):
file INSTALL cannot find "/Developer/PPSSPP/assets/shaders".

Any clue on how to get those to function?

I have the same problem...I looked on the github repository and the assets folder contains lots of files that are not downloaded when I get a complete copy of the source code, even very old ones. This is really weird.

Also, PNG_LIBRARY PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR is related to libpng16, maybe we need to download it through brew?

I was able to compile PPSSPPSDL through terminal, without using PPSSPP Helper. I wonder why it blocks the compilation...
Anyway, the commands were the following ones. I used as my folder /Applications/Emulators/PPSSPP/SourceCode, but you can use any folder you want.

cd /Applications/Emulators/PPSSPP/SourceCode
git clone git://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp.git
cd ppsspp/
git submodule update -i
cmake /Applications/Emulators/PPSSPP/SourceCode/ppsspp
make

And then I call ./PPSSPPSDL from that folder to launch the emulator.
No other library was needed other than sdl and cmake, both installed through homebrew
