Virustotal is not an antivirus. It is a service that uses other antiviruses and shows you the result of those. And on your screen avast is showing no danger, along with 59 other antiviruses. Only one antivirus is showin a virus in it. I contacted them to mark it as false positive, but you should stop spreading misinformation, because you make people scared for nothing
But virus total can detect viruses can it not? I'm pretty sure that's a big deal of knowing the download could be a unsafe for others.
And I'm not trying to spread misinformation when I'm just trying to not only help you notice a virus and help you get rid of it but if you don't really care about it... It's really not my problem.
I know this was just explained but I want to say anyway..
Virus total shows the results of many different anti virus's at the same time. It is extreamley common for an anti virus to flag a file as dangerous, but no anti virus is perfect, this is what we call a false positive, it happens to developers all the time. Unless you're getting negative results in a lot of anti virus's, I wouldn't even be cautious, let a lone worried. And a plus to help you feel safer. This website is a very popular and trusted space in the gaming market, the people behind it approve and verify content which they share to the site. Just like steam or Humble Bundle! The games are checked and deemed safe. And plus if there really were virus's in the game, somebody woud've already called it out and this game wouldn't exist with the itch io platform anymore. And that goes for any other service like Patreon etc
You are totally safe my dude!!
If you are experiencing performance issues or crashing issues, that would be a hardware/software issue. I would say hardware since this game is an actual 3d game experience with a real 3d environment. Which means it probably utilizes GPU performance unlike other games that run on ren.py (usually 2d images and pre rendered animations.
