I purchased the game through a bundle on Itch several months ago and finally got around to downloading it, but when I try to uncompress the zip, it says that I don’t have permission to save the file. I have tried deleting and re downloading already. Please advise.

Well that is clearly wrong. Let me reupload it and see if that makes a difference. Otherwise I'll have to contact itch support.

Heads up that I’m having similar issues. Downloaded to iPad and am told I don’t have permission to the file. I’ve not yet tried elsewhere but wanted to let you know the OP’s problem isn’t isolated. 

This is really strange. As far as I can tell, it's nothing on my end. As the OP discussed, you should try opening it on another device and see what happens. Otherwise, you may need to contact itch support. In the meantime, if you are unable to open the file on a different device, I am happy to send you a copy of the PDF and any other materials you are unable to access if you provide a way to contact you. Is it the .zip file that you are unable to open or the PDF?

It's the ZIP file. Opened just fine on desktop but would not following multiple downloads to iPad. But, I got it now. Much thanks.

Very strange, but glad you were able to open it on desktop. I'll keep looking into whether there's something I should be doing differently, or maybe it's a problem with ios? Either way, happy you've got it now. 

try again and let me know if it works

Okay, I tried on my phone again and it still says that I don’t have permission, but when I tried on my laptop it seemed to work properly. Thank you for trying.

How weird! Sorry it's goofy
