OK first Bing a game maker studio user myself I can tell you that you didn't create zip file instead of an executable itch,io  launcher can do the installation and uninstallation without any additional actions on the user if it's a .zip file I assume you're just very new to using the engine how however I would say your mechanics are solid and you did decently well with the Art in the game is very imaginative 😊 

Lol, had fun with this! I love the idea of prottecting Linguini from being eaten by enemies. Admittedly I ain't a GameMaker creator so I found it new that the .exe made me install something from GameMaker. But maybe that's normal. Nonetheless fun game dude!
