Need Mac / Linux verification

My game: https://weckar.itch.io/ariadne

I created mac and linux versions, but cannot actually verify I did it properly or that they work. Would someone with access to either of these systems mind verifying they work? I'd be content to know they start at all.

Mac doesnt work.

I just tried mac and it doesn't work. I believe you have to build it on a mac in order for it to work. We had the same issue. We decided to use WebGl so that mac users can play

My Mac works but I do it using the terminal hack way. It somehow is not recognised as executable. Use WebGL for Ultimate compatibility.

Can't use webGL. This experience needs to be full screen. I'll see what I can do to fix it, thanks.

You can use WSL if you know what I am saying

chmod a+x executable(AppName/Content/MacOS/AppName for MacOS)

and use butler to upload it to itch.io directly don't move it back into Windows(it messes up permissions)

this should also work with Linux

If I had access to a Mac (or any unix machine) I'd absolutely do that!

if you're on Windows 10 you can use Window Subsystem for Linux 

but anyways..

Thanks everyone. Removing non-Windows versions for now, until I can get access to a unix machine.
