Heyyy, so for some reason, every time i try to download, it warns me that this is apparently a trojan, but i would still love to try it! pls fix this tho

(+1)

No offence, but how am I supposed to fix that? I did not add any malware to the game, therefore I can't just remove it XD

The only "solution" I am aware of is paying for a code signing cettificate, which makes the executable look more trustworthy, but it costs like $200/year, which is not something I can afford for a small indie game almost no one will play anyway.

IIRC, you can just add it to exceptions in your antivirus. Or if you don't trust me, just play it in a VM/emulator, it should run just fine in those thanks to low system requirements.

You should be able to search up what you need to do in your settings to allow u to play it based off your computer or laptop type. Most of the time, you should just be able to click something in security that says you know its not certified and it should allow it to open (Ive seen it work on Mac and HP).

It's the AV's sensitivity that is too high. Avast was extremely guilty of this, Windows Defender not so much. Usually it's related to the "Potentially Unwanted Program" setting
