    Sakura Cupid

    I downloaded a game on Nutaku called Sakura Cupid on my Mac. The game says it's available for the Mac so I looked for the instructions on how to download it and it told me to open up the file that said "Sakura_Cupid.py." However, when I open that all I get is a wall of text. I know I'm doing something wrong/stupid I just need to know what I'm suppose to do. Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't own a mac, nor have I purchased the game in question.

    I do know, however, that .py is the file extension for a python script. In order to actually run it you need a python interpreter, otherwise when you open it you just see the actual "source" code.

    I will say, however, that that seems like an extraordinarily odd installation mechanism. All the games I've gotten from Nutaku that are in python came with an exe that runs the game, and I from what I remember, when downloading a game from Nutaku that supports mac it has popped open a window asking if you want to download the windows or mac versions. I assume the Mac version should have a mac python interpreter/launcher. (The python script itself, being just source code, should be almost completely platform independent.)

    Is it possible, perchance, that you are running a pirated version of dubious source, and didn't legitimately download the mac version? And the piraters assume you'll just use your own python interpreter to launch the platform independent script?)
