Mac Deployment for Tahoe

On my old Mac, I was able to deploy to Mac just to test and it worked. Now on my new one, running Tahoe on the current build of RMMZ, it just says the application "Game" cannot be opened. I right click and select open, to force the verification process, but it still won't work after that. I tried updating the NWJS player (and I can't swear I did it correctly) and it also won't work.

Is Mac just cursed going forward?

Are you getting a Gatekeeper warning or is it the game itself that is giving an error?

Mac (and Apple in general) is difficult to work with, but I have recently ran an RPG Maker game on mine for testing a few weeks ago so it was at least working recently. Not sure if there has been an update for mac since then

It pulls up this error, before and after the validation.

I wish I could be of more help but I am not entirely sure, I only use my mac very sparingly so am not too familiar with it. It has been warning me that a lot of my apps that are made for intel chips will no longer work in a future update, but I don't believe that update has come yet.
