After downloading the game, my anti-virus labels some file inside as a trojan.

i think this is an issue for ren'py games in general--because i use a custom icon for the .exe, it sets off the anti-virus alert. i can assure you the files are safe :) hope you enjoy the game!

That's a bizzare bug I gotta say if what you described is true lol.

But it's nothing unexpected for me personally, plenty of RPG maker games I download get this false positive report on Windows defender.

Funny because it fails to report a lot of real viruses that I managed to download.

It happened to me with literally all ren'py games that have exe as it's main executable file the only one I didn't had that are the one that uses an html file as executable

Yeah, some Anti-viruses see Ren'py games as malware, due to how they work. 99% of the time it's a false report
