The game was looking interesting but I think you tried to put a lot of features in the game. Not only in game play but also in menus,UI and interface. This resulted in incomplete game mechanics and some bugs.
I think there is an interesting gameplay there if you had more time to polish it.
Can't open the Mac version for some reason, but would love to try it out!
Can you tell me whats happening? Wont open at all? I sadly don't actually have a Mac to test it... but ill do my best
Sure, it displays the following. This is on an Intel Mac.
Again not sure how exactly mac works with stuff but is it due to being in a zip folder? Should I use a rar or something?
I'll also check on my side to make sure the stuff uploaded correctly
I noticed you are using rpginabox, so perhaps it's not really any your fault at all, but the Mac exporter of the tool is too old. I don't have any other explanation right now. It seems to be a valid x86_64 application as far as I can see, but just doesn't run on any of the latest two macOS releases.
Thanks for the update. I'll forward what you said to the creator of RPGiaB he's pretty quick on response time for being a solo engine developer.
This was the response the developer gave me -
I'm not sure, I would need more details beyond the generic error they provided to narrow it down more. Not too familiar with MacOS, but I know that it can be overzealous when blocking things from running. They could try running this "chmod +x" command to give the app executable permissions as it may not have them by default, this article has an example: https://superuser.com/questions/1345755/how-to-fix-the-application-cant-be-opene... - they'd open a Terminal window where the game is located and run a command like this:
```chmod +x Game.app/Contents/MacOS/rpginabox```
Thinking more about it, though, they could also try installing and running it through the itch.io desktop app, as I believe it fixes the permissions automatically when it installs the game. There's a bit here about it: https://docs.itch.ovh/itch/v23.6.1/integrating/platforms/macos.html. Not sure if that's the issue, but probably worth trying that before messing with the command above.
okay so I was able to test it myself at work.
If you open terminal and do the following it will work
Cd downloads(assuming its in your downloads)
Cd mac(if you know how to do both these in go cool)
Chmod +x Game.app/Contents/MacOS/rpginabox
Then go to privacy and security settings and allow the game to run.
I wish it was easier and there probably is an easier way in the future but at least thats how I got it to work at work.
I did not expect the theme to be interpreted this way, clever! And pretty unique concept. Nice job :)
Thanks!
Looks fun and everything worked great until I got the fish scaled, then I couldn't figure out how to put it back in the container. Great concept. Great wholesome art. I liked where you were going with hand.exe and container.exe. Played on mac.
is it possible the resolution was off and you couldn't see the colored box on the left side that you could click on to put the fish in your scaled fish inventory?
(I know I was getting an issue where if I set the resolution to low or sometimes the full screen cut off part of the game)
I cant really test things on mac sadly as I dont own a Mac.
Thanks for playing 😊
