Game crashes on startup
Ok so I have a Mac Intel Core i7, NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M, OS X 10.10.5, but everytime I start the game it immediately crashes. There's nothing plugged into my USB ports and I am not using multiple monitors. Can anyone help me out?

Someone else back in April said it was because two monitors were enabled. Disconnecting the extra monitor fixed it.

*EDIT* sorry, didn't see your note about not using two monitors...

Can you check that your display settings are reset to factory standard? If not maybe console has a some info from the logs.

OS X Yosemite is the problem. Just like Windows 10 :p
The game must be played on windowed mode.

Thanks for the bit of info. However I can't even update because El Capitan doesn't work well with my college's website and I'm not too keen on failing because I wanted to play a game =\

*EDIT* Also I have tried windowed mode and everything suggested thus far and none of it worked.

*EDIT 2* Ok so situation changed and I was able to update and I did, but the game still doesn't work.

This is what I found on Telltale's website: https://support.telltalegames.com/hc/en-us/articles/206439918--Mac-I-use-OS-X-Yosemite-El-Capitan-and-get-a-distorted-screen-when-I-launch-my-game
Without any luck.
