Fun game, looks good, boss cool :)
Im Sorry, I cant play the game, windows just wont let me
Now that the jam is over I re-enabled the pyinstaller version which should work on windows and shouldn't flag on AV.
I disabled all windows virus & threat protection bull**** so it didn't delete the EXE. All in all, good gam.
Is there some other way to download this? My anti-virus is not letting me download
I packaged the game with a different tool (called PyInstaller), that didn't seem to flag on as many AVs. But then there was an announcement that went out saying updates aren't allowed to the game during the rating period. I'm waiting on the jam to finish before showing the download again, but the source is available on GitHub: https://github.com/charles-l/32bitjam
Thank you! I got it from there and played it with no problem. The game looks great and has great music, I enjoyed it a lot. I know how hard it is to make a game and to have it have that AV issue sucks, I feel so bad. You did a great job.
Oh, wow thanks for going through the effort of building it for yourself, I know that's a massive pain and I really appreciate you taking the time to do that! Glad you enjoyed it :D
Beautiful
Its a shame about the virus scare cos your game is really good! ^^ and very unique, I loved the last level!
my score \o/
Thanks for playing! And yeah, I'll have to keep looking into workarounds for that Windows Defender issue :P
Windows defender says it's a trojan virus
Don't worry, it's not :)
The full source is available on GitHub if you'd rather build it yourself : https://github.com/charles-l/32bitjam (it's created with all open source technologies too: Python, Nuitka, and raylib).
It sucks because my PC wont even let me download this at all because it thinks its nasty.
Is there any way to re submit a build that would be less scary for windows?
Hmm... I've gotten a warning on my game's exe and a few other jam submissions, including Unity builds which is annoying since it's the most popular engine out there. I've been working around Window's defender (on Windows 10), by clicking "More Info > Run anyway" when I get the blue "Windows protected your PC" popup.
But if it's not even letting you download the file that's either the browser (maybe try a different one? I'm using Chrome?), or some new "security feature" in a different version of Windows that I haven't come across yet. I've used this same tech stack in game jams before without issue, so this must be new 😞
I'll take a look at some other Python distribution options, but I'm not sure if there will be anything that will placate Defender since it works off of pretty naïve pattern matching. If you build a large enough binary with enough dependencies in it (like a game), you're bound to include some benign functionality that was flagged in a virus at some point that Defender includes in its pattern library.
