The Mac build doesn't work on 2019 Intel running MacOS 13.6, the error message doesn't give any info why. Rightclick > open is not the cause of the issue.

I'm sending a message to an Apple Dev friend and I'll get back to you asap haha!

EDIT: So if your CPU is a Core Solo/Core Duo, you can't play this game which needs an Intel 64-bit; if you do have a 64-bit MacOS, then I don't know. Since the build is made both for Intel 64-bit and for Apple silicon, maybe a build made ONLY for Intel 64-bit would run? I will try to make a separate intel-only build for the next public version, thanks a lot for your feedback! In the meantime, if you could communicate the error message I could perhaps find a solution (like executing a command line that could look a bit like this for example "sudo chmod -R +777 /thegamefolder", that's what I do in WSL to "unlock" the app before zipping it and uploading it.

I really hope you find a solution, I like for the most people possible to play with my software haha! Have a nice weekend!

Yeah its a 64 bit Intel Core I7, Im used to the terminal and tried a few tweaks :

such as disabling GateKeeper (both ways) :

sudo spctl --master-disable 

and

sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine "$FILEPATH"  

None of these methods worked. When doing

sudo chmod 777 "$FILEPATH"

on the app I couldn't open it, I found out that doing the very same command on the archive then unzipping it solved the problem.

To avoid this problem in the future I think you should add the process in some installation guide. Or find a way to ship a .zip with the correct permissions. But most of the time to install an app on mac devs provide a .dmg that you can make with disk utility, terminal, dropDMG, (you'll need a mac your friend or I could provide the .dmg to you or through a VM) or alternatively a .iso that can be made on windows.

I can provide some tests for mac if you need them, I got some suggestions, but I saw that you prefer to add the ones of you patrons (which I can understand). On a les mêmes fuseaux horaires, je suis aussi français.

est-ce que tu a trouver une solution? je comprend pas vraiment l'informatique :/

La nouvelle version (0.3.4) est maintenant en format .dmg avec un installateur custom pour Mac! ♥
