If you're talking about when you open the app and a window pops up saying it's from an unknown publisher, it's usually fine. It costs money to sign off your apps for windows.
Some assets may be triggering your anti-virus, but it isn't actually harmful to your system.
Oh man, I thought I would be playing this game as a pick-me-up... I'm sobbing as we're delving into all the different ways grief can affect people. Excellent art, excellent writing.
Edit - and I'd like to tell myself that things are going to get better, but I did read what was in the haunted house windows, and I did recognize the guy in the painting, and I can't imagine I'm anywhere near finishing this thing.
I love Twyla so much, she's the kind of person I'd love to be, mentally strong and smart, doesn't need friends because she lives for herself. And will do whatever it takes to get what she wants which is fascinating in my opinion, that new dress is gorgeous!
Ohhhhh my god, this game is so good. I got it a while ago, never actually started until like three days ago, and finally finished just now. I forgot this game was free until reading some of the comments here. How was this free?? It had so much content and it was all amazing. I love all the characters so much (especially Mary, of course) and all the endings were all very exciting!
(Spoilers)
Since I'm not capable of talking about things like characters and story as eloquently as the others in this comment section, I'll mention something that probably no one else called out. I'm a sucker for dumb puns, so I liked the Cold Point store and stuff like that. But I mainly wanted to point out that Twyla leads the Parliament... because a group of owls is called a parliament!!!! That's intentional right?? When I realized that I was like 🤯🤯🤯
Anyways, thanks so much for this banger of a visual novel!
WONDERFUL GAME YOU'VE MADE ARCADE! I had such a great time going through all the routes, going through all these emotions as I saw the good and bad endings and THE TRUE ENDING OHHHH. And having you once again just made the playthrough so special too really can't thank you enough for being in the chat for every part! 10/10 one of my favourite visual novels I've played!
I love this game so much, the way characters deal with grief (to me felt very realistic),especially Crowen and Mary. My only criticism is that Reginald seems acts very differently to how he acted in Here for the Sweethearts, but that might because of lore that hasn't been reveled yet.
h hhh my heart can't take this... I can't say much without spoiling stuff so in short: THIS GAME IS AMAZING, PLAY IT (ESPECIALLY IF YOU'VE PLAYED AND ENJOYED BLACKOUT HOSPITAL!!!!!!!!!) now spoilers ahead (for this game and blackout hospital):

Where to start where to start...
I'm actually gonna start with the few negitaves cause everything else about this game I adored.
So the mafia thing... that was a little out of left field right? I see that seeds were planted throughout the main story, like Twyla being rich, her and Crowven hating eachother, the cabin being so secluded for a reason. But it was all so vague that you could've played all 6 normal endings and not the true one and have literally no idea the game had anything to do with that. Not to mention it felt pretty disconnected from the initial premise of a girl that talks to spirits, and a serial killer on the loose. It wasn't bad by any means though, I mean this in the nicest way possible: the true ending felt like an episode of riverdale except I actually cared about the characters. I like the twist that the mystery number came off as so creepy just cause Ovidius didn't know how to text properly, that scene was very funny. Also, I'll acknowledge it's totally possible there were some more direct clues that I missed or that went over my head.
OKAY UNABASHED PRAISE TIME:
DUDE I CAN'T. The first ending I got was Crowven's bad ending and while I don't think it's necessarily the worst one IT HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK!!! IT WAS SO SAD!!!!! I might be partial towards Crowven since he's the least insane out of the main three, the nicest, and the one I did first, but it just hurt so much for him to disappear and have that ending screen of Mary crying. I didn't even realize there were good and bad ends for each route at first so I just kept playing. I did Twyla's route and got the bad end, and so I thought Reginald's route must lead to a true end, but I actually got the good ending first try there. So after thaaat I went back and did the others. I decided to do Crowven's good end last, and I'm glad I did as it was just the most feel good. Agggghh their relationship is so wholesome (minus all the mafia stuff heh.)
I kept calling Reginald Tetra at first cause I was just coming from blackout hospital, but I shifted over time. His route is so good at luring you into a false sense of security. He's so charming and there is really only a few minor times he's blatantly suspicious, like when he's all shifty at the restaurant, so much so that you actually start to trust him juuust a little bit by the time you need to spend the night, even having played blackout hospital (it does help that I stayed with him like twice already trying to get other endings and nothing bad happened.) But then, the game pulls the rug right out from under you. DUDE one detail I loved so much was that the polaroids in his drawer were from points in the game Mary felt uneasy, or was asleep. One simple line sent chills down my spine: "I can tell when you're lying." OOH, CHILLS! Not because it's creepy, because it's a callback to when you first meet him. THAT'S SOME GOOD WRITING!!!
I don't have much to say about Twyla's route except that you did a good job making me realllly hate her hehe. I don't know if senseless gang violence is really a good morale or anything, but it was relieving seeing Mary's family safe. One thing about Twyla's route I will say though, is that the ending gave some great insight into Reginald, and made the ending to blackout hospital make a bit more sense. We defintley don't have the full picture yet, but you can tell that this is a wide spanning, well thought out story.
Some misc things: Great art! The POV and style (as well as Crowven's whole route honestly) reminds me of Night in the Woods, which is another great game. I can tell you got more ambitous with animations and transitions in renpy towards the end as well, as stuff was just more alive in certain parts of routes, and definitely in the true ending with all the panning shots and stuff. It was also cool seeing all the guest artists for the posters, shows, books, and photos. The Vasilis cameo as well made me :D
Alright I think that's all (I probably forgot something I wanted to say and am gonna feel dumb later)

There is no malware present in the game or game files. If your antivirus software is flagging it, it's a false alarm.

WONDERFUL GAME YOU'VE MADE ARCADE! I had such a great time going through all the routes, going through all these emotions as I saw the good and bad endings and THE TRUE ENDING OHHHH. And having you once again just made the playthrough so special too really can't thank you enough for being in the chat for every part! 10/10 one of my favourite visual novels I've played!does anyone know how to open on windows 11? I downloaded the windows file but i may be doing something wrong
I love this game so much, the way characters deal with grief (to me felt very realistic),especially Crowen and Mary. My only criticism is that Reginald seems acts very differently to how he acted in Here for the Sweethearts, but that might because of lore that hasn't been reveled yet.
Thank you so much for making the game!
