So... I paid money.

"Cannot read property build of undefined" error when trying to install this game.

This is annoying, problematic, and need to be fixed.

Developer

Team is on it. Hopefully we can find a fix for ya. Can you get a screenshot of your error for us please?

To fix this, go to the "edit game" menu, then tick the Windows checkbox next to "Cattle-Castle-2-1.3.3.zip." (Doing the same for the MacOS version will fix the same issue for Mac users)

This error just means that the Itch Desktop App doesn't think any of the files are compatible with Nova25's operating system, and ticking that checkbox will fix it.

the "edit game" menu ?
Huh, were you talking to the develloper there or me ? Because, I don't really understand/see where I must go for this ''menu'' ?

I was talking to the developer, sorry for the confusion, haha. If they want their game to work with the Itch.io desktop app, they need to tell it which files correspond to each operating system, and right now, both files are marked as not being compatible with any of them.

As for you, just install the game manually by going to Itch.io in your browser, clicking the arrow in the upper right, going to "my library," and downloading it there. Updates are infrequent enough that the desktop app doesn't really offer much benefit over a manual installation.

*cough*

this might be happening because the download does not have an OS type attached to it so itch desktop don't know what to do. just download it from the website not the desktop client

This makes keeping it updated a more unnecessarily frustrating affair, really.

Also, it makes little sense that a game- a *paying* one at that- on the Itchio website... isn't even compatible with said website's app.
