@simonschreibt I wish there was a Mac build.

@grumpygamer I'm sorry :( Not only did the Mac-Export failed during the latest exports, but I never got it running with Steam. BUT: I will try to get it running (the export) and then I will upload the full (mac) version to Itch for free. :)

@simonschreibt I went and bought the Win build, I'll look forward to the Mac build. Been following the dev. Excited to play.

@grumpygamer Thank you so much! Now the pressure is ON! ... need to get this Mac Build going! <3

@simonschreibt @grumpygamer i am also unfortunately waiting for the Mac build. The itch version worked flawlessly for me previously. I'm looking forward to playing through the latest version.

@someguyjg @grumpygamer I just uploaded a Mac-Build to Itch. You can download it for free (it's the full game). You have to disable the Guard-Keeper-Thingie (because my game is not signed by Mr Apple) but it should work then.

@simonschreibt @grumpygamer awesome, thanks for the update. I'll be sure to buy it as well, I've already had a lot of fun with the game. I'm very familiar with the annoyances of gatekeeper.

@someguyjg @grumpygamer in fact, a dev Friend told me that it should be possible to put Mac stuff on steam (even without xcode) and steam would handle the gatekeeper stuff. I'll look into that!

grumpygamer,
@grumpygamer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@simonschreibt @someguyjg It is true. Gatekeeper is not run if the app installed via another app. None of my games are notarized. Although they are signed, but you might not even need that with Steam. They don't do anything special, it's a Mac thing.

@grumpygamer @someguyjg Very good to know! Did the Itch-Version work?

grumpygamer,
@grumpygamer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@simonschreibt @someguyjg Itch.io build worked fine, no gatekeeper warnings.

someguyjg,
@someguyjg@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@grumpygamer @simonschreibt That's interesting, because it did fail for me, I got the "app is damaged and can't be opened" warning, which you can use a terminal command to overturn and it worked fine after that. This has been a common experience for me with game downloads.

@someguyjg @grumpygamer Someone in my community got this "damaged"-warning as well and said "it does not work on an M2". I guess it's a different chip? Maybe games work only on newer Macs?

grumpygamer,
@grumpygamer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@simonschreibt @someguyjg I have a M2.

@grumpygamer @someguyjg good news! i just uploaded the mac build to steam and a friend tested it AND it works. at least for him...i hope for you too!

grumpygamer,
@grumpygamer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@simonschreibt @someguyjg I'll grab it today!

simonschreibt,
@simonschreibt@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@grumpygamer Ok, it was an easy fix and I just uploaded a fresh Mac-Version to Itch: https://simonschreibt.itch.io/cozy-space-survivors
I really hope everything works! Please let me know :)
