Can't really seem to find the application using mac

help please?

Oh strange! I just tested it out on my end and it seems to be working. Just to make sure we're on the same page, did you...

1. Select the white "Download Now" button  
2. Either donate a random amount or bypass the donation section by clicking "No thanks, just take me to the downloads"
3. Select the mac option and start the download
4. Locate it in your downloads folder and unzip  the zip file
5. Then click the renpy file named Crimson Hydrangea to start the game?

If you did all of that and are running into additional errors, you might need to either adjust your security settings OR troubleshoot with renpy since that's the program I used to create the game. I was able to download and have it play on my mac so I think it should work. 

I have downloaded the mac file already. I'm just having some trouble with finding the application

Hmmm, do you have a downloads folder?  I'd recommend searching for a file called CrimsonHydrangea-0.1-mac.zip  . Once you've located that you can right click and click " open with" and select "archive utility" in order to unzip that file. Then once it's unzipped, you should see a new file appear labeled CrimsonHydrangea and once you double click the game should start playing. 

If it still doesn't work I'd recommend either downloading or troubleshooting with https://www.renpy.org/ to make sure that it's compatible with your mac.

I've unzipped the file and I can't find the game app.

I'm gonna try other things and will get back if anything comes up

How strange! I'm so sorry I wasn't able to help you out. If you do find a solution please let me know. Good luck Phantomflower08!

So I figured it out LOL...I downloaded the PC file of the game and it works. so my mac laptop works better with PC apps/files...than with mac files....I feel betrayed but grateful that I can play your game. Will post again after I've finished my run

Oh that's so weird! I'm so glad you figured it out though! Hopefully if someone else runs into the same issues they'll see this comment thread and use your method.

I also hope you enjoyed it and that Day 1 was worth all of the struggle it took to download! <3

Maybe try downloading it from the website rather than the app. It always works in my case if it doesn't work in the app

from the Itch.io page? I have

Do I need to try the Renplay page?

Then download the itch.io app and try it there
