Sorry about this! We will upload a new version first thing!

Thank you!! When do you think it's updated and ready to play?

(+1)

I'll be working on it today! Hopefully this evening!

Hey! Just wanted to let you know that we are still working on this! Hope to have it working for you shortly. Very sorry for the delays!

No worries. It's already amazing to hear that you're working on it! Can't wait to play, though :)

Hi TheJasper,

Any news on the MacOS update?

Thanks for the Ping! And apologies for the delay. We've been working on a huge update this month and it is dragging on for a while. This is a top priority though. Sorry it is taking so long for you!

Hi Thejaspel, it's been almost a month now. Are you sure the game will be fixed for Mac users?

Sincere apologies. It has been a stressful month working on the Town! The new mac version is there now! It's the fourth file on the page - called BackpackHero.app

Can you let me know if this file works properly for me? And, also, does it have the appropriate icon when you load the game? Or does it just display as a folder.


Thank you!

Hi Thejaspel! So sorry to hear that you have been having stress, although I can totally relate. I work in media and boy are things stressful when working with tight deadlines.

Anyway, thank you for creating a new version! Unfortantely, it still doesn't work :(
I get the message: "The application "mac" can't be opened." It says mac because you named the file that way, haha. The icon works, though! Any idea why I can't open it?

Really sorry we keep failing you! If you message me on Discord I can get you a Steam key. I know that works properly on Mac. I also just uploaded two new files - BPH.zip and BPH.app. Do either of these work for you? If they don't work right away you can also unzip BPH.zip and then go into Contents/MacOS/Backpack Hero

Do any of those methods work?

I'm so sorry to be a pain in the ass, but both options don't work for me :(
With BPH.app it just won't open (whether I put it in Applications or just open it straight away) and BPH.zip I unzipped and opened Contents/MacOS/Backpack Hero, but it just opens a text document with code. I will keep helping you with testing if necessary. Furthermore, I really appreciate you trying to make this work. I unfortunately don't use Steam, so that's why I'm asking for your help on the files on Itch.io.
