Game build not available on Itch?

I really wanted to play this through Itch rather than Steam, but I was unable to download or install the game, as the installer couldn't seem to find the 'build'.  Is this an error, or have you removed the game from Itch?

It should be available. Which operating system do you use?

Windows.

I've uploaded a Windows version that you can unzip and play. Will try to get it compatible with the itchio app shortly, but it should work this way for now.

Thank you!  I'm suspecting that it's some sort of glitch in the app, though, because I still couldn't install it.  I do have a screenshot of the info that the app displayed regarding the failure.  I logged into Itch via my browser instead, and had no problem.  Let me know if you want to see the image.  For me, however, the issue is resolved.  Thanks for your timely attention!

I'm having this same issue with a couple of my games and for the life of me couldn't understand what it was. It also just said "undefined build" which didn't help at all. But if it's a glitch through the itch.io app, maybe I can just download the game via the website?

Hopefully!  Did you try it?

Ya I did! It still won't work through the itch io app installer, but I can download the games that wouldn't download from the app, at least from the website instead. Unfortunately, that just means it acts as a separate download. So when I play the game I can't do so from the itchio app launcher. I have to do so from where I downloaded the game to. Which is fine. As long as I can play the game!
