GOG and mac

Hey @all,

when the game was released i didn't think for long. Instead i went to GoG and bought it instantly. Then i remembered... wait, GoG only sells the Windows version, but you wanted to play this very game on your MacBook.
So here i am. Is there any way to get the Mac version of the game or have i messed up completely. In my defense: Usually i think more before i do something. At least i learned that a no brainer doesn't mean you should bypass your brain. ;)

Sorry, you do need to have purchased it from either of the other locations to get access to the Mac version. I have heard a rumor that GOG might be expanding to OS X in the near future, but I do not know if there's any truth to that. I hope they do... more cross-platform stuff is better for everyone.

Have you tried contacting GoG about a refund? Then buy it again either direct or from steam. Personally I went direct, a) the steam conversion rate was off so it was cheaper direct, b) I wanted linux support C) You get the steam code anyway. Ultimately its a no brainer.

GOG freely gives refunds if you haven't downloaded the game or any of its extras yet. Once you've downloaded any (they keep those logs), they no longer give refunds.

Matthew, you can“t work with Gog to get a code for the mac version in FTL site?

Sorry I have no control over GOG's distribution or refunds. They don't currently offer Mac games at all, so there isn't even a code available that would let you download the Mac version from them :(
