This is not a download issue. The file has downloaded successfully.

This error shown by macOS Gatekeeper when trying to run applications downloaded through your browser. The developer has not created a signed build with Apple so this is the warning generated.

Unless you want to disable Gatekeeper, we recommend installing games through our app: https://itch.io/app. It will allow you to run the game without changing any system settings.
