I own a mac as well, and if you're running on the 2.3 launcher, it probably won't load because the 2.3 launcher can't load fire particles that well, and Bastion has really good fire effects. I have the same problem, but sandbox itself won't run.

we still don't have a mac binary

so fire up XCODE, fix up the xcode project file and compile away
until we get someone who can compile a mac binary (it's really low priority at the moment), you won't be getting one; which means you're stuck with 2.3

Hmm, I know a few web developers that use Mac...I'll give them a shout and see if they can hop onto the IRC channel to try and get a Mac binary compiled.

For simpler applications, you can simply load up the program and click "compile" but I do believe that this program isn't "simple." Ask Hirato, though, he's the genius with this stuff.

From what I understand, the project file needs to be updated in accordance with the changes made in 2.4 before it will even properly compile.

Hirato, all-powerful as he is, doesn't have Xcode, and doesn't know how to use it. He can't update the project file, all he can do is say what (in general) needs done. For the most part, you're on your own on compiling it.

Well who compiled the last source? Would there be any way to contact them and see what they did to compile the last version?
