Godot stores files in its own temp folder, it's a little strange.

(user)/Appdata/Roaming/Godot/app_userdata/PROJECT VAGARI

Just wipe everything there that isn't a folder, and you should have an entirely clean sweep!

Additionally, since this is the only folder Godot allows me to modify, you can take screenshots with F12 and they'll appear in that folder. Very neat.

You'll also notice a few messages left behind by [] there that might seem nonsensical without context. Just ignore those.

Fullscreen and complete window resizing is now available!

Sure! I'll look into providing other options for screen resolutions. Thank you for playing!

PROJECT VAGARI Ch.0: Madness Epilogue 

You are the Wandering God, a being given full dominion over a dying intersection between two alien worlds. With your avatar, explore it to your heart's content, and discover all of its secrets.

Based on games like Zelda II, the Ultima series, Final Fantasy I, and even Elder Scrolls, this is an open-world immersive sim that melds the simplicity of older games with complex simulation elements to make a low-fidelity world feel alive and immersive.

PROJECT VAGARI Ch.0 Boasts:

1. 4 playable characters (3 unlockable)
2. Over 20 different bosses, including a final boss and ending
3. Optional superbosses and postgame content
4. Over 2000 lines of dialogue
5. 3 large dungeons
6. 3 towns with their own factions and cultures
7. Over 80 different encounter variations
8. Region-based crime mechanic
9. A fully-integrated day/night system
10. Other Adventurers to meet, who will team up with you, talk with you, duel with you, and remember you
11. NPCs who react to your actions and reputation in surprisingly natural ways
12. The ability to attack and fight every NPC in the game
13. Countless secrets that will keep players looking for hours
14. Frequent updates
15. Full controller support with remappable controls
16. Hidden lore that speaks for two worlds
17. A separate mirror dimension
18. Zero AI-generated content

The game was originally intended to be entirely original -- hence, Ch.0.

However, I'm running out of time due to being unemployed in the middle of a historically bad job crisis. I can't afford to pay my bills, let alone hire artists, and so I ended up using sprite art from other sources in order to compensate. This necessitated that the story and world become entirely different, and thus, Ch.0 was born as a Zelda fangame. Regardless, if you discover all of its secrets, you will find surprising teasers for what will hopefully become Ch.1.

If you like the game, please support it on itch.io or support me on Ko-Fi so that Ch.1 can be made. But honestly, it's mostly so that I don't go homeless and die in the free-for-all that is the Canadian homelessness epidemic.

Please note that this is technically a proof of concept, despite all of the listed content being available. As a result, updates will come that will fix bugs, improve stability, adjust the game from player feedback, and add new content.

It comes up clean on my end. However, just in case, I scanned my computer, recompiled the whole .exe, and ran it through VirusTotal.

Here are the results.

The 1 flag is from Gridinsoft. Concerned, I did research, and discovered that this is a common flag that results from a .exe file being unsigned.

Being "unsigned" generally just means it's unofficial.

tl;dr: It's a common false flag that happens with homebrewed software. The game should be perfectly safe, and you're welcome to warn everyone otherwise if it ends up hurting your computer. I don't want anyone harmed by my passion project.
