Just tried the latest change.
I get a folder with "ThatGameMac" containing an empty folder with the same name and the game.
The game still gives the "can't be opened" error.
Thank you atakker! I really appreciate the assist, as I haven't had a proper opportunity to look into a real fix.
Basically the problem is that When you build a Mac version on PC the accessibility settings are all set wrong. It's a known problem and just another example of an easy problem to fix that Unity has know about for years and just not done anything about. There are solutions to this problem, I've just been stuck in travel-limbo trying to get home to my country and not had a great opportunity to sit down and fix it.
To be specific, it's a permissions issue. I don't know how Unity messed this up, but all that's needed is to add the "x" permission to ThatGame.app/Contents/MacOS/ThatGame using chmod. I don't see why this can't be done with Windows Subsystem for Linux (although I haven't tested that), but that should be much easier than setting up a Catalina VM (although setting up a Linux VM should also be easier if WSL doesn't work, tbh).
This should work - I zipped it back up but not sure if it'll retain the permissions. Runs fine on the Mac (M1) after giving execution permissions to the app's binary.
Thank you so much Pixafied! I think it should, especially since I'm not unzipping it. Let's give it a go :) Sorry to ask, but I actually have a new version too, I don't suppose you could do the same again with this?

I'm working on setting up a virtual machine with Catalina, just so I can do this. So shouldn't need to ask you many more times!
No worries!

This version works on my Mac! However I am noticing bugs that I think are not intentional haha. From the third level and on gravity does not have an effect on me and I will start very slowly floating upward triggered by either touching the platform or random other actions. Sometimes I can win a level still and other times I float too quickly to hit the folder. Once I got in the folder but continued floating and it never triggered a win level event haha (level 6. Didn't get past this one because of this). Perhaps this is something to do with getting it to work on a Mac that messed wit some settings? Dunno! But what I did play of the game I enjoyed!
