I opened the Terminal app, typed 'cd' to navigate to the Downloads folder, typed 'run chmod -x NeuraQuarium.app' but it still doesn't work. Frustrating.

Okay, it looks like it's become more complicated since the last time I posted instructions. (Thanks a lot, Apple.) I'll update the main page but also give the low-down here:
First, navigate to the directory where NeuraQuarium.app lives
Then run "chmod +x NeuraQuarium.app/Contents/MacOS/NeuraQuarium"
You should be able to try and run the app now but get a message saying it cannot be confirmed.
Now, open your System Preferences and select Security and Privacy.
There should be a section saying that NeuraQuarium couldn't be validated and give you an option to say "Open Anyway."
Once you've registered this exception, you should be able to run the .app normally.
That worked! Just a typo in your command though.
So for anyone else having problems:
1. Download the .zip file into Downloads, and run it so it extracts NeuraQuarium.app
2. Open the terminal app, type 'cd Downloads' then press enter
3. Type 'chmod +x NeuraQuarium.app/Contents/MacOS/NeuraQuarium' then press enter
4. Close terminal and click on the NeuraQuarium app, you'll get a security message
5. Open your System Preferences and select Security and Privacy
6. There should be a section saying that NeuraQuarium couldn't be validated and give you an option to say "Open Anyway."
You're in.
Hope that's helpful!!
