Thanks for supporting the Mac. This game looks very fun and got my vote just now. :D

You guys should sell this on the Mac App Store too.

I have downloaded that demo, it is a RAR file with 213,837,940 bytes (213.8 MB on disk) and extracted that RAR file to an .app file/container, which is 472,706,979 bytes (472.9 MB on disk) big.
Neither double clicking nor selecting OPEN from the contextual menu does anything, not even a Dock icon appears for a visible fraction of a second.
I am on 10.8.3 by the way.

Sorry for inconvenience,
We have tested that on several MACs and everything works fine, many people have downloaded and tried MAC version of our game, and to be honest you are the first one that complained that you can't start game. At the moment i don't know what could be the problem.
If anyone has the same problem please tell us about it so we can fix it.

Cheers!

Hi guys,

I'm one of Phoenix Game Studio develpoers. Recently we have uploaded demo of our game T.E.C. 3001 on Steam Greenlight, so if you have time please take a look.
Here is the link to our game http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/updates/95490143/1391068596

If you enjoy playing our game please vote.

Cheers!

And T.E.C stands for what, I do not own a crystal ball, once again I have to go trawling the net to find out what this abreviation means :(

Nothing happens, it does not even appear in Activity Monitor.
It runs however in Windows 7 in a Virtual Machine. That will suffice for my needs.
If need more information, I will gladly provide it.

Thx for feedback, we will have that on mind.
Now when you finally can run game, how do you like it?

Here is a workaround...

Open the package contents and navigate to MacOS there the program file sits. Change it's attribute to executable.

open a terminal, type in: chmod +x (then drag the file named T.E.C. 3001 here, and press enter)

After that the game plays by clicking directly on that file...

DELETED until you present a proper working MacOS package.

After trying the workaround, I get The application "TEC3001" can't be opened. -10810

I want to apologize everyone for inconvenience. We are trying to find out what is the problem and to fix it. And we will let you know as soon as we find it.

This is kind a tricky because here it works fine.

Thank you for understanding

Cheers!

Is this a native Mac application or was it ported using Wineskin? I ask because Wineskin currently has a problem with Mavericks that I have seen on 10.9.1 which causes it to throw this error and the only way to clear it is to log out and then log back in or else to reboot the machine. The author of Wineskin is aware of the problem. I'm not sure what the status of a fix is currently. I haven't seen any further news about it.

I thought that this error was Wineskin itself having a problem though and not the app created with it that uses Wine. I guess if the app was not properly created with Wineskin it is possible that starting it would attempt to invoke Wineskin rather than the created Wine app however.

No we didn't use Wineskin, game was made in Unity3D. The problem is that we have never experience problem like you described, and we are trying to find out what could cause this kind of problem.

Cheers!

Are you clicking on the file that the chmod made executable, or are you clicking on the main app icon?

Making that exact file in the contents executable, then clicking on the same file works for me.

That is what I get after clicking the App. I get image file unrecognised error when launching the executable directly.
