Why the pass? This is Godot. I have run this and found nothing wrong with it and it looks very customised to this game jam which mass posted viruses tend not to be. However it is just an exe, the package (the game assets) are therefore all packaged within the exe. This creates a red flag for windows anti-virus. If you want this to not throw up an error, pay Microsoft to sign the exe, use steam or actual advice do not package the game assets in one file. See the warning on this page under code signing: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/export/exporting_for_windows.ht...

TLDR: I do not think this is a virus, I think this is Godot allowing an option it should not for windows export.

From Jam Runners:

The latest upload on this page is after the submission deadline. This was uploaded with the intension of having a second "fixed" version of the game however it replaced the original. The newer version of the download fixes a bug at the very end of the game allowing you to complete the game.

Given this upload was done so close to the end, it was a small bug and this game jam is not a super serious endeavour we have decided to allow this entry to still be submitted this one time. Decisions like this will be taken on a case by case basis and in future when adding downloads, renaming the upload is the correct method.

- Scott and Didi
