MacOS version doesn't seem to work on M1 Mac. What can I do?

Should just work. Does it give you any information when you click the question mark? I'm not a Mac user so I'm afraid I'll be of little help.

Ok so I did eventually find a solution. I'm gonna put a little tutorial for everybody having the same issue:
- Open the Terminal

(- If you didn't already do it, drop the app in Application (it's better like this anyway)

- Now just locate the file in Terminal :

cd /

cd Applications/Platwormer\ Mac.app/Contents/MacOS

(If you renamed the app, type the current name instead of "Platwormer\ Mac". Don't forget the .app, tho)

- Then, just type in

chmod +x Platwormer

- Should work now!

Btw, really great game!

Ah amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this!

Just so you know; this was also the fix for me not being able to open you new game That Game! Thanks MoiLeMelon!!

for some reason I keep getting permission denied on the terminal when I tried this :/ I have a newer Mac, does the Mac version matter?

I don’t think so, I have an M1 Mac running Big Sur. That’s weird… I couldn’t help you without a clear visual of what’s going on. I’m really sorry

maybe if you type "sudo" in front of the command?

I'm getting the error "can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software"
Running macOS 12.0.1

Go to System Preference > Security & Privacy > General

From here you can authorise the app.
