hey delve! im not sure where itch put those games, maybe it is under the 'bundle' area at https://itch.io/my-purchases/bundles?

if you cant find it there or in your library, you should try reaching out to itch.io support

No, I can download it. I have access to the download page, but it fails to launch. I read the event log, and it said, "Could not refresh upload: itch.io API error (400): /uploads/1157151: you must buy this game to download". This led me to thinking it might have had something to do with it failing to realize I owned the game, but perhaps I've misinterpreted it? Forgive me. I'm not very savvy in this area.

I don't know if this will help, but the game exited with this:

Had error: exit code 0x7f (127) for (SpookyGhostsDotCom)
→ Standard error ================
 /home/$USER/media/games/Itch.io/app/spooky-ghosts-dot-com/itch - lin/SpookyGhostsDotCom: error while loading shared libraries: libsteam_api.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 ==================================
 → Standard output: empty
 Relaying launch failure.

Are you on linux? others have reported that some distros have this issue, another user posted this below which fixed it for them:

"

nevermind I fixed it, so in linux:

chmod +x SpookyGhostsDotCom

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$(pwd)

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

./SpookyGhostsDotCom

"

Yes, I'm running Archlinux.

I tried what you suggested in the terminal, and it managed to run the game! Thank you!

Would there be some way to run that when I launch it from the Itch app?
