Couldn't run it: 

panic: open assets/catch/catch.json: no such file or directory

I see the asset in question but I guess the relative filepathing isn't working quite right for some reason

I found you can get around this by running the program from the command line in its own directory. E.g.

    cd magnet-fishing
    ./magnet-fishing

If you double-click the icon instead, I think Mac OS uses your home directory as the working directory, so it can't find the files.

Hey, I’m sorry about that, I guess I had to use Go’s embed earlier. Now I fixed it and also now there’s an opportunity to try it in browser: https://hzoltan.itch.io/epic-magnet-fishing

Also thanks a lot for helping and playing!
