i was told that launching a non mac specific version was possible by launching the game in the main renpy application. although the game succeeds in launching, it seems the dialogue breaks. I can see it in the history tab, but i am not sure how to show it. Any idea how i can fix?

That's the kind of issue that shows up when running a version that was not ported for your OS.

I assume you are missing the font used by the game, if you install the missing font or edit the game to use another font instead you might fix it.

Where do I put the font if I may ask?

was this problem ever resolved? because I'm suddenly having the same problem. most all Miel games I touch with a Mac after changing the build distribution Mac. Got any advice other than the font?

I fixed it by seeing which renpy version the game was made in, downloaded that version and launched the game with it.
