this was detected both by windows and virus total scans as a virus
I am not entirely sure why, but it seems the old 1.2 version was somehow hacked/corrupted, something... I have created a fresh 1.3 version that should be fine.
Just to be safe I have changed my itch account password, and enabled 2FA (this really should have been on already, my bad).
If you are still not trusting the itch download, you can view the source code and its' source release on the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/E-Dawkins/Minecraft-Clone
