just so your aware and so people are aware though this seems safe and probably is my software was going bonkers about safe software when downloading the launcher now as this is on paetreon i would assume its safe but it is concerning how much scam detectors were going off saying about low scores and high risks for downloading it i just feel somone should put this kind of information up on this page

Thanks for letting me know, and I completely understand the concern.

I checked both launcher files on VirusTotal after seeing your comment. At the moment, the scans are clean across essentially all antivirus engines, with only Trapmine flagging the Windows launcher using a generic machine-learning score (Malicious.moderate.ml.score). No specific malware, trojan, or known malicious family is being identified.

For full transparency, here are the VirusTotal reports for both launchers:

Windows Launcher: VirusTotal Report
Linux Launcher: VirusTotal Report

Based on these results, this appears consistent with a false positive from a heuristic/ML-based detection rather than the identification of a specific malware family. I’ll still continue monitoring future builds and checking the launchers before every release.

I also agree that this is useful information for other players, so I’ll add a note to the download page mentioning that some antivirus or Windows security systems may show warnings when downloading or running the launcher.

Thanks again for bringing this to my attention.

very welcome wish i could support but money is bad so i have none to offer but i maneged to get through public and so far very good i probably shouldent say this but you're conversation with dating nami is bugged not badly actualy quite funny if you hit back after getting a positive result with nami it keeps the positive stat so you can cheese the point system for easy result with nami actualy quite useful for people in a rush but probably not what you intented

Thank you! And no worries at all about Patreon support — I completely understand.

And yes, I actually noticed that Nami dating bug during a later round of testing 😄. It was pretty funny, but definitely not the intended way for the point system to work. It has already been fixed in version 0.3.5, so once that version becomes available publicly, you’ll be able to check the corrected behavior.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to report things like this and for the kind words about the game. Even if you’re not able to support the project through Patreon, leaving an honest review here on itch.io also helps me a lot and is genuinely appreciated.

Thanks again for playing and for the feedback!
