Are you using a External Drive?

No worries, it's like a USB you can attach to your Mac through a cable, to transfer data.

No, I just have it downloaded to my mac. Though most of my storage goes to YAAGL, not any other games.

Oh okey, did it eventually work or still stuck?

I think there has been something wrong with my mac. i erased all data and ill update if it works now.

Something turned out to be wrong with my mac. I cant tell exactly what but for me i was unable to open or interact with files, and no games including YAAGL worked.

if this is happening to you, i might suggest completely erasing and reseting your mac through settings
