It's a false positive -- sometimes this game trips Windows antivirus, as do many.
You could tell Windows that it's okay and run it anyway, but no hard feelings if you don't want to after that.
Thank you for letting me know specifically what it was detected as though -- I'll see if there's anything I can do to make it less sussy to Windows.

Man, I hate it when I have TRNWILIANEDAMSBAFSRIAN, but I sure like this game!
I love all the little details and events -- the sprites are really charming and the gameplay idea is really unique and interesting.
I got stuck on a loading screen for a minute or two though and had to bail :(
I think it was the second or third loading screen I hit though, so I don't think it's a problem with the loading screen in general. Would definitely try it again!
Played it! Pretty neat concept -- I like how you have to time your direction to shoot the enemies, and I like how the enemies have health bars on them. The aesthetic is nice too!
A few suggestions:
- The difficulty curve is a little too steep
- Maybe let the player recover some health when they get the shop
- Rename the Build folder to bitdungeong before zipping -- just a nice little thing when people are downloading several games during a jam.
The possible ones are listed/vote-able here: https://minijamofficial.glitch.me/
And normally in jams they only reveal either the theme, limitation, or both when the jam starts so people don't start really working on the game specifics until the jam starts. Otherwise someone could have just started making the game weeks ago when this jam was first announced.
Thanks for playing, and I appreciate the kind words!
I totally agree about the bullets though -- I really ran out of time at the end of this jam and had trouble tuning the patterns to be interesting and challenging yet doable.
Also there isn't a win state. I'm actually going to update the description to mention that so more people aren't confused.
Your game was really fun though, very polished!
