Yes. 

And they are from itch, or downloaded from Mega/Pixel/GoogleD like every other one...  but only this  one caused my admittedly sensitive and perhaps little excessive AntiV (I have it set to be suspicious of everything, and scan everything, and warn me about everything... but only once, which matters here) protection to kick in instantly and automatically and refuse to run the game, even though I told it AND Windows to run it anyway, initially. 

There's some it does not like in there to the point it would not even allow me override it and still blocked things and sequestered the programme anyway, so I nuked the game immediately. Not sure what is happening but this has not happened with any other games from itch. Perhaps there is something in there, or maybe just my settings for my anti-virus are set so harshly nothing should work... but I cannot risk it is the latter, and not the former, so just thought I would let you know. 

Virus Total Scan

0/72, just did an up to date scan. 
I suspect you're using some dog-shit AV like Avast or Norton which gives false-positives as it allows other and it's own malware through.

Did a deep scan with Malwarebytes and other more trustworthy options and found absolutely nothing.

I'll try Malwarebytes, and see. 

Still, most games on here are optimised to NOT trigger even false positives. Norton and Avast and Trend and the like, are BY FAR the MOST common protections in use. Specialist programmes used by people with more advanced computing knowledge are the minority, and I find it  tenuous to imply they are not trustworthy. 

As I said already, this is has NEVER happened with ANY other game I have ever downloaded from this site. EVER.

I'm not going to argue with your poor decisions. Simply understand that Norton and Avast have been around for years, and are well known as having excessive false-positives, and bloatware.

Norton also hid a cryptominer into their software which would mine crypto when the system was idle, leading to higher temps and power usage, often without the end user knowing about it.

The reputation exists for a reason.

Good day.
