Still not working unfortunately. Says "You do not have permission".
In the terminal, once I enter those 2 commands, it says "Password: (insert "key" imaged)"... but when I enter my password (I'm assuming for my login info on my Mac?), it says "incorrect password"
EDIT: I can't get it to work at all now. Tried a few different things, and now when I enter the 1st command, it just says "file not found".

The first command,

. This is added by the OS when an exe is unzipped, and prevents it from running.
Let's break down the second command:
sudo chmod -R 755 /Users/xxx/Desktop/love_of_magic_book2

=> this means "run this command as admin" (and is why it wants your password to confirm that you're sure about running as administrator)

=> change the file permission. In this case we're adding
-R 755 => ensures the file is now an executable
/Users/xxx/Desktop/love_of_magic_book2 => location of file.

Unfortunately Mac OS is increasingly becoming hostile to anything not bought through the AppStore, so this process is likely to become a common issue for you. As an aside, if you get the game on Steam it'll work out of the box on OSX.
Anyway, it's a pretty core part of the act so I guess it's too bad if they don't like it. The sex scene from her POV is optional (dependent on you buying her the bottle of Whisky), and I actually had a lot of fun writing it. I like doing new things, and this was definitely a new experience.
