Help why does it send a virus to my device when I open the files

(+1)

bruh. Windows flags ANYTHING from unknown sources. Doesn't mean there's a virus

I think it might not be something as harmful as a virus. But something problematic did occur. I used a mac to download the game. When I was about one minute into playing it, my device suddenly  fanned vigorously, it was like burning hot. I trie to shut down the game but it wouldn't let me, I have to emergency shut down the game and I kinda panicked and deleted the game. It was the first time something like this occurred. I tried to play other games I downloaded itch and it didn't do something like that.

The VN is made in Unity (not Ren’Py), so it can be much heavier on Macs depending on the hardware. On some devices, Unity can suddenly spike CPU/GPU usage, which causes the fans to go wild and the device to heat up. Weird since the vn works on android and Mac pro M4, so my guess is that ur might be older or something.

Thank you so much for explaining. I am still very new to visual novels and it didn't occur to me that the game engine has these effects
