Steam client must be running to play BIT.TRIP BEAT

I just purchased + downloaded the game and tried to run it for the first time and received this:

I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.5 and definitely had Steam open.

I sometimes get that issue for other games, I think it's due to the communication between the game and Steam's service/daemon screwing up.

Restarting Steam usually seems to fix the problem.

Although this is on my Windows boxen, dunno about macosx.

I've tried restarting Steam, same error.

Also, all my other games work. :/

I'm having the same problem. Has anyone found a fix yet?

Same problem here.

I am running Mac Os 10.6.8.

I've downloaded it before on another computer and it worked, but now it's the only game I have this problem on as well.
