The app doesn't want to open for Mac (El Capitan 10.11.16). Every time I open it, it says

The application “ProjectTetraAlpha” can’t be opened.

The app is already unblocked.

Hello!

Is there anything else the dialogue box says?

Here is a list of possible solutions:

Have you tried power-cycling your computer (hold power button for 10 seconds)?
Try upgrading to OSX Sierra (High Sierra is known to have slowdowns and other issues).

Let me know if this works!

I updated my mac to OSX Sierra, and also power-cycled it, but this is what I get.

Hello!

Your mac may not have the requirements to run it, but there is one last thing you can try:

Re-download the game from itch.io again. If this does not work, please let me know!

Thanks!

I'm having other reports of the mac version being unable to open, I am now testing it. Stay tuned for more!

I can confirm that the issue is prevalent on all versions. I will keep status updates on the issue and try to resolve it ASAP.

The new patch should be a ETA of 30 minutes. Stay Tuned For More!

Ok, I found out the issue: You will need to download it, then open up terminal and write unzip, then drag the application into the window eg:

unzip /Users/ProjectTetraDev/Desktop/project-tetra-osx-new.zip

Press enter, then wait until it has completed. After that, go to finder -> Go -> Home -> MacNoEditor->ProjectTetraAlpha

Thanks for your patience!

(This may happen if the app bundle is unsigned: macOS Gatekeeper refuses to open such apps. Using https://itch.io/app to install and run the game works around this)

Finally, it works. I used the itch.io app though. Looking foward to having fun!
