I just installed this game, and my virus checker gave me a warning (that the exe contained "the pattern of TR/Crypt.ZPACK.Gen"). Have you seen this error before?

No, I can't say I have, sorry. All I know is that some of the antivirus programs are known to give false positives on indie games such as those made with Ren'Py (like mine). Still, I'd recommend contacting your antivirus providers and/or support so they can check the files themselves. and if needed, updated their databases.

Since I only use the free version, I don't get support. At some point, I may download another antivirus program and see what it has to say. Thanks for trying to help! I know it isn't your job to debug my virus checker, so I appreciate it.

Oh, I get it. If you want, you could try downloading the game through the Itch App, and running it in the sandbox, there's a chance it might help.

It's not a problem. :) I looked into it and I think I found out what causes the false positive. I have a custom icon made, and apparently it freaks out some of the antivirus programs, especially Avira. You could try some of the free online scanners like ESET  for example, if you want to be extra safe.

I do use the app, so I'll check the sandbox.

Ah! Interesting! Thanks!

Let me know if it worked! 

I tried whitelisting it with Avira and using the sandbox, but neither worked. In the end, I had to uninstall Avira and install another antivirus program. Now, however, I am able to play and am really enjoying it. Yay! Thanks for your help! I really look forward to playing more of the game.

Oh, I see. Still, I am glad you were able to resolve the issue successfully! I used to have a lot of problems with Avira myself, so I understand the struggle. 

Thanks for playing Perfumare

Thank you for all your hard work! By the way, I found these mistypes:
chapter 2: you finally notice the poodle of water (puddle)

Talking with Jewel: You have've much time (haven't)

Showering: You sight, making use of (sigh?)
Suddenly, he newspaper is out (the)
In the club: you push yourselves to your feet (yourself)

Thank you so much ! I fixed the mistakes and updated the game!
