  Sorry, I should have been more clear. What I did was the following:
  
  1. Went to http://giderosmobile.com/download
  2. Clicked on Mac OS X download link (which is http://giderosmobile.com/donate&download=/download/2018.12/gideros.dmg)
  3. Clicked on "take me to the download" (https://github.com/gideros/gideros/releases/download/2018.12/gideros.dmg)
  
  Which gives 404 on Github.
  
  Which should have been: https://github.com/gideros/gideros/releases/download/2018.12/Gideros.pkg
  
  (note the pkg suffix, instead of dmg).

  Guys, I have a question about html5 export.
  Can exported 'index.html' be opened in our PC browser, or it must be uploaded to a server?
  
  I've tested simple wasm/non-wasm export, when I open 'index.html' in browser, the app is stuck on "Preparing...", it never loads.
  
  p. s. All I have inside 'main.lua', nothing else:

  local random=math.random   local function rotateObj(obj) local tween=GTween.new(obj, 1, {rotation = obj.deg}, {delay = 0, ease = easing.inOutCircular, onComplete = function() obj.deg+=360; rotateObj(obj) end}) end   for i=1,500 do local flower=Bitmap.new(Texture.new("pics/flower.png",false)) flower:setPosition(random(100,400),random(70,800)) flower:setAnchorPoint(.5,.5) flower.deg=360 stage:addChild(flower) rotateObj(flower) end

  It depends on the browser used, but most of them refuse to do XHR on local files, so better upload them on a server or host your own server locally.

  About HTML5 export, it seems that compressed modes fail on OSX when using plugins, we are investigating...

  @Apollo14 check if this answer works: I used a similar trick when I tried html5 in the past, but I can't find it now..

  In addition, you can read the browser console to know which errors are thrown

  FYI, for awhile now the latest mac OS always prompts "Enable firewall ports?" whenever I open Gideros Studio/Gideros Player since it isn't signed.
  
  In case it helps anyone else, I run the following after I install the latest to avoid clicking every time I open:

  sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - "/Applications/Gideros Studio/Gideros Studio.app" sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - "/Applications/Gideros Studio/Gideros Player.app"
