My visual novel about a mysterious goth girl

[jasonhubbard]

Hey there, I'm Jason, and I want to share the VN I made based on my short story from 2019: "The Girl in Cedar Falls."
It's about a teenage goth girl named Lucy who does something very unlike her: sit at the boys' basketball team's practice session! Stu Caffrey gets dared to ask her out on a date, and she shuts him down ... HARD. Stu's cool with it; he got 20 bucks out of it, after all.
Don't feel too sorry for him, though, because Lucy is caught hanging around outside Dave's house (Stu's friend) late at night. Stu and Dave chase after her, demanding answers, but then Lucy stops to face them and ...
Oops, spoilers from here on out. If you like a paranormal mystery and teenagers trying to be witty as they talk smack, then "The Girl in Cedar Falls" will be for you!

Looks interesting. I went to itch.io to download and got this message "WARNING: This Page Has Been Quarantined"
You might want to put it on some other hosting site.

Thanks for the heads up, but I was able to download it no problem, even after I logged off itch.io.

You still should check your files. Of course they download if we bypass the quarantine, but the Mac version contains no Renpy app, and the Windows version has a fatal error and can’t be opened.

Thanks for the heads-up, but I downloaded the zip file for Windows and brought out the game package, and I was able to start the game no problem. (I clicked on the "Application" file.) So, the software does have two options for Windows; perhaps I should offer both of them.
