I got a flag when I tried to install the latest version of the game (0.8.7). It's something in the game's .exe that's been identified as Wacatac.B!ml. I'm sure it's not actual malware, but it might be something that has similar code to other things that are malware. Did anyone else see this, or is it just my install being weird?

EDIT: Oh I should probably clarify, I accidentally posted this in the demo Community forum, but I did install the full game when I got the false positive. In case that makes a difference.

Thank’s for the report! Recently Renpy split their 32 and 64 bit executables and the 32bit one has been getting flagged as a virus on a limited number of virus detection software (including windows base one unfortunately). There’s nothing we can do but hope that it’s eventually flagged as safe by windows in a future definition update and inform people that it’s expected behavior.

If you have 64bit system you shouldn’t need the 32bit executable anyway, if you do need it you’ll have to flag it as safe and restore it.

Oh thanks, I didn't even noticed that it had only removed one of the .exe and left the other. So I should be able to play just fine.
Thanks again for making the game! I love it
