Well, I don't know if that's the case for this particular game, but the reviews about the dev not completing their games sounds true so far. I don't know what their deal is. This game looked so good. There are many games with very low rating that get many more updates than some highly-rated games. And sometimes they get abondaned like this one. I don't get it.

Man, what a shame... this is sad. Maybe he didn't get the patreons he expected after putting so much into this game. The dialogs are awesome, and the few animations, in my humble opinion, top notch! I hope he returns some day.

Don't know anything more than you do + I'm way more busier these days.

God damn, is there any game similar to this? Something with the same theme but isn't ludicrously over the top and stupid? This is the only one that seems to take itself seriously.

I don't think this is gonna be updated anymore since dev is a Russian unfortunately and payment from outside russia is not possible anymore for an unknown time
So if possible can anyone pick this game up and continue his work
You can count on atleast my support on patreon or subs star whichever you choose

why won't the Mac version work
Two things might have gone wrong:
  • the app is quarantined by Gatekeeper because it's from an unknown developer;
  • the executable inside the app might have lost its execute permission during the zipping/unzipping process
To check quarantine, start Terminal and type "xattr " without the quotes at the prompt and drag the True Bond app into the Terminal window. Terminal will fill out the path for you. Mind there is a space between the command and said path. Hit enter. If you see com.apple.quarantine in the results, the app is quarantined.
To remove the quarantine, type "xattr -d com.apple.quarantine " and drag the app again into the window. Hit enter. Quarantine should now be removed.

To check the second case, you need to look into the contents of the app: right click on the True Bond app, pick Show package contents. Navigate to /Contents/MacOS/. Inside that folder you'll see a file called True Bond. That file should be a Unix executable. If it's anything else, it has lost its execute permission.
To fix this, start Terminal and type "chmod a+x " without the quotes at the prompt and drag the file inside the Terminal window. Terminal will fill out the path for you. Again mind there is a space between the command and the path. Hit enter. The file should now be executable.

As a general precaution, make a duplicate of the app first before changing its attributes or permissions.

Those commands should work if you made no errors.
Try again. Type "xattr -d com.apple.quarantine " without the quotes and drag the app again into the window and hit enter. Terminal will give a response if there are any errors in the command you gave. If the command is executed correctly, you will just get a new prompt.
Next try to start the executable directly (the one in /Contents/MacOs/). This will start a Terminal session which will in its turn start the game. If not, Terminal will give a response as why it didn't.

the xattr command went well but the Content/MacOs part didn't
View attachment 2091888
Again easy to see what the problem is. The True Bond file opens in TextEdit instead of Terminal. This means it is missing the execute permisson.
See the second part of my original post on how to fix this. Again, make sure there is a space between the command and the path to the file.
