Install instructions
Mac:
Open the dmg and drag the game into your applications folder. When you first open it, you'll get a warning similar to this. This is because I didn't buy an apple dev certificate for $100 a year.

Simply go to System Settings > Privacy & Security, and scroll down to click "Open Anyways"
