Yes this works.

Instructions for terminal n00bs:

Open Terminal.app in Applications>Utilities

Right click on FlowScapeMac.app and "Show Package Contents"

Open the Contents folder inside, you will see a MacOS folder

In the terminal window, type cd with a space at the end

Drag and drop the Contents>MacOs folder onto the terminal window and hit return

Type:

chmod 754 FlowScapeMac

and hit return

jeez, i thought macs were supposed to be easier... anyways, glad you got it working!

Just to re-iterate... I had no such problem with the 1.1 download.

There must be an executable/permissions flag that got missed on your 1.2 Mac build.

This might be the problem?

FYI:

"Go to your Player Settings (from the build settings menu), and ensure that Mac App Store Validation is turned off - otherwise it won't play unless the game is bought from the App Store."

I tried this and it did not work. I am still getting the same error message. Any ideas?
