    This is an old SDL bug, going fullscreen will cause a crash on any Mac OS after Leopard. Not sure if the version of SDL that tpt uses is just outdated, or if the problem is that SDL hasn't been updating.

    @Simon is working on it

    It's the first one. I don't know how TPT gets compiled for mac, but according to Simon it is very hacky and SDL can't be updated until he redoes the compiling (to actually compile on a mac or something).

    I know so much time passed for this but if there is anyone who still trying to fix it go to the display settings from system preferences. Then rotate your screen for all direction until you find game's setting logo. Then disable fullscreen from ingame.
