Hi, I've come across an error (although when I proceeded by clicking ignore it allowed me to progress)


```

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Hi there - this is your Mac not allowing the game to run the code it needs for chess. Make sure you've moved your game to a trusted location (something like an Application folder) and it's not in your downloads folder (or still zipped!). If it still happens, you may need to try a reinstall.
