When I start up the game I get a garbled screen.

Then the menu loads and I click the map to go to the tutorial.

When the next page loads up it's frozen and the sound is repeating.

Hi Nengard,

Have you tried disabling cutscenes in the options screen?

There is a known issue that Unity's internal video player has issues with Mac and we're awaiting some kind of fix from them, in the mean time disabling cutscenes should allow you to play (assuming that is the issue here)


Can you give it a try and let me know if that resolves the issue, thanks.

No problem, as I said the underlying cause of the problem is still an issue that we're awaiting a fix from Unity for.


But in the mean time, since you can't view the opening cinematic in game, here it is on youtube so you don't miss out on it. Hope you enjoy Heart of Gold :)
