Thank you for the warning.

I just scanned my latest game there, and it's clean.

Looks like a false positive, there isn't enough confidence here to make any conclusions. Less involved scans may pick up runtimes for various scripting languages as being generic "malware"

Hello,

It seems that this person's account has uploaded files that are infected. If you report games from the link on the bottom of the game page then we can easily forward the message to the developer. I've updated the title of the topic to accurately reflect what's going on.

Also keep in mind Virus Total can report false positives, if a particular file has very few numbers of matches then it's more likely to be a false positive.  Something like "Babable Malware.HighConfidence" tends to be a false positive unless there's more scans backing up the result with an actual piece of malware detected.

I've temporarily suspended the account and contacted the owner so they can look into the issue.
