I'm trying to open it on my Mac and nothing's happening :/ I also tried going into package contents and opening the executable file directly but that didn't do anything either. Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: running the executable file indicates this file is missing:

Application Support/com.cowcatgames.demetrios/game.ios

Hi,

I haven't updated the files since almost 2 years (but maybe no one tried the Mac version?) For some reason itch.io won't let me download my own game XD So I can't check.

But can you re-download it and check the content of the package? That file should be there. I've checked my latest package and the file was inside.

Of course if you're running the executable directly without extracting everything, it won't work. If I remember correctly, normally you simply have to double click on the downloaded file and it should install. (but admettedly, I rarely use a Mac and my memories from two years ago are fuzzy)

Worst case scenario, you can get a Steam key, for which the Mac version definitely works.

Yeah this was all after I extracted the ZIP download. I only tried running the executable directly after the original file wouldn't work. I tried redownloading a few times and I keep getting the same error.

Let me know if I can get a Steam key instead!

That's weird, maybe the latest Mac OS updates broke something. You checked that you allowed "unknown sources files" in your OS settings? (can't remember how it's called exactly)

You should be able to get a Steam key with your itch.io purchase! Can't you?

Yeah, I went on settings and allowed the file to run despite being from an unknown developer. It still wouldn't load.

Oh my bad I didn't know you can get a key from itch.io. I'll go do that now, thanks!
