The file contains zero viruses. I use Chrome also and this has never happened. If you keep having this issue I can send you game directly via Discord or any social media you provide.
yeah I knew it didn't contain any viruses, I thought there might be some other issue in the file, but it indeed was chrome's issue and you should try downloading it from itch on some other machines (just a suggestion), I tried downloading it using firefox browser, and it worked. Thanks for offering other options to download it btw 🙂
