Thank you for raising this! And good thing you spotted the problem in the release.

I suspect this is a permission issue - I don't have good insight why this would happen every time. My suspicion is that the application probably needs to be signed using a paid certificate / using a mac developer account which I don't have.

I think this was recently introduced by Apple. When building the application yourself, this is not an issue. But if you download the app it becomes quarantined, as it is not signed. You can workaround it like this:

xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine oculante.app/
codesign --force --deep --sign - oculante.app/

I think unless I pay 99 bucks for a developer account per year and sign it, there may be no simpler solution.
