Won't launch on OSX

On OSX Big Sur.  I unzip crosscode-new-osx.zip, double click on CrossCode.app.  I get a message:

You do not have permission to open the application "CrossCode.app"

it looks like ~/Contents/MacOS/nwjs is not executable.  chmodding +x  made it so and the app launches but then crashes.  I suspect other files in the package have messed up permissions that did not get preserved via the zip?

The crashing may be the same issue that occurs on Linux, see my post here https://itch.io/t/1979944/linux-version-crashes and see if upgrading nwjs fixes it for you too.

I ran into this issue as well on macOS Monterey.  Doing a 'chmod -R 700 Contents' within CrossCode.app fixes it, but probably not the ideal fix

As mentioned in https://itch.io/t/1980208/wont-open-for-mac the game will work, if you use another programm to extract the zip. For me "The unarchiver" worked.

This worked for me: extracting with The Unarchiver. Thanks!
