it pops as a trojan on virustotal. so you may want to look into why.

Just ran it myself, and it’s only being reported by Jiangmin, which is a Chinese AV famous for flagging tons of western software, including incredibly well-known things such as VLC Media Player.
As a footnote, it was reported as safe by Avast, Avira, BitDefender, ClamAV, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Google, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes, Microsoft (I assume Defender), Sophos, Symantec, and those are just some of the well-known sources.
Thanks for the report. If you choose to skip the game, totally understandable, but one Chinese AV flagging it as a “generic Trojan” does not mean it’s dangerous. RenPy is well-known and open source with the ability for others to perform consensus reviews, and my personal .rpy files are contained here as well for such a review.
