Hey there! Thanks so much for your interest in the game :3 I'm really sorry to hear you're unable to start it :(
Unfortunately, games made in Tyranobuilder and exported for mac only seem to work for 50% of people for some reason. I have asked for support from the engine devs regarding this issue, as have other uses of the software, but the discussions have pretty much ended with the community rep saying that the engine devs say that macs are awkward and don't play well with whatever it is they use in the engine >.<
It runs on my friend's work macbook, but that's the only person I know with a mac, and I personally know nothing about macs because I've never owned one myself :(
Since releasing this I have decided to stop using the Tyranobuilder engine because I'm really fed up with the lack of support. Telling people that macs are awkward is not a good enough solution >.<
The following is a list of suggestions that were given in order to possibly get Tyranobuilder games to work on mac, but they only seem to work for some people, and not others:
1) This was suggested by someone on the Steam Tyrano support forums : "Now, on Mac, I'm not sure if the problem is that people need to open the package with something like The Unarchiver instead of the native tool: https://theunarchiver.com/. That is a known issue. You might see if someone can test that method for you."
2) https://steamcommunity.com/app/345370/discussions/1/405694115216065246/
It's very frustrating whenever I hear that something isn't working as it should :( I don't understand why the engine features the option to export games for mac if they only work for 50% of people. It seems as though the devs of the engine just don't care about fixing things like this, which absolutely sucks.
Would you be able to play in a browser at all? As I could attempt to upload a browser version instead.
I am now using a completely different engine to make future games, so I could also try to remake this game in the new engine, but it might take me a week or two to complete it because I'm still only just learning how to use the new engine.
Again, I'm really sorry you've run into issues with this. I'm not sure how refunds work on here, but if you can't get the game working, you should absolutely get a refund :3 Thank you for buying the game! I hope that you can get it working. If you want me to try exporting a browser version, please let me know which one you wanted to play, the male voices version, or the female voices version.
I hope you're managing to stay safe :3
