Hey hey! Sorry to hear that >.< Mac is always really awkward, unfortunately :( It's possible there's a problem because I renamed one of the files after export, so I've just reuploaded the Mac version with the original file name it came out with upon export. You can try downloading again to see if that makes any difference, but it probably won't T_T
Here's a big list of help I've compiled for Mac users: https://melancholy-marionette.itch.io/darling-duality-winter-wish/devlog/227880/...
It's posted on one of my other games, but the info there applies to all of my games. It's a mixture of tips other Mac users have told me about once they've managed to get my games working + some general stuff I found when I searched online a while back :3
Hopefully, something on there will help you! Unfortunately, I don't own a Mac or know anyone who does, so I have no way of testing Mac builds myself. From what I understand though, the main reason my stuff doesn't open on Mac without fiddling with things is cos of the extra security that Mac devices have. I've been told it's because a lot of indie games get blocked by the security because they're unsigned or something >.<
Heya, I'm on a Mac too and used to have a similar problem for a lot of games I find on itch.io. You can either:
1: Download the itch.io App (https://itch.io/app) and download the game through there instead of through the site, it should open properly
OR 2: Follow these steps
- Open the folder the game's in, right click on the game and select "Open Package Contents", then click Contents, click MacOS, you should see a file called "Yandere Heaven"
- Open Terminal, write the following command:
chmod u+x
(make sure there's a space after x)
then drag the "Yandere Heaven" file and drop it onto the Terminal window, then press Enter. The file's icon should change. Then try opening the game again.
Awesome stuff! I'm super glad to hear that :3 It always worries me if there are problems on mac and linux cos I want to be able to help, but it's hard when I don't have the systems to test on >.< And it would just really suck if folks couldn't access the stuff I'm putting out there when I've worked so hard on it, haha.
Hope you end up enjoying it :3
