I'm trying to do a small update for my already released game, but I have issues compiling the game in AGS, as Windows Security interrupts it due to threats it sees in the .tmp files during the process.

The compilation errors I get in AGS:

Unable to register for Windows Game Explorer: Unable to replace resource: BeginUpdateResource failed
Unable to set EXE name/description: LoadLibrary failed

And my Windows Security protection history says:

Detected:
Trojan: Win32/Bancteian!pz
Affected items:
file: C:\Users\Valtteri\Documents\Rock 'n' Roll Will Never Die\Compiled\Windows\RCX16A8.tmp
file: C:\Users\Valtteri\Documents\Rock 'n' Roll Will Never Die\Compiled\Windows\RCX87E.tmp

Windows Defender also says that the threat is removed, but it repeats every time nonetheless (the names of the .tmp files change). I could try allowing the threat, but since it's a specifically named Trojan, I'd want to make sure there aren't any actual viruses there. I know AGS can sometimes cause false positives with the virus scanners, but two months ago everything was still working fine, so something's changed somewhere. How do I know if it's a real threat or not?

Doing a full virus scan on my computer doesn't find any threats. It's just those .tmp files that AGS creates while compiling the game that are problematic. Also, the game actually compiles despite the errors and it seems to run okay. But I'm not sure I want to make it available to people if it has potential virus issues.

The Story:

The game tells the story of a middle-aged teddy bear planning a comeback with his old glam rock band – in a world where glam rock has been dead and buried for decades. Experience all the fun of organizing band activities with people who have families and careers, rehearsing in moldy basements, trying to convince promoters to book your band and playing Tuesday night support gigs at empty bars for no money!

Development details:

It's a full-length game with 100+ characters and 60+ rooms with hand-drawn 1920 x 1080 pixel graphics. I've been working on it solo for almost three years now, but it's finally starting to feel like it might actually be finished one day. A couple of months of heavy testing and fixing smaller details here and there will hopefully do the trick.

- story 100%
- puzzles 100%
- graphics 95%
- scripting 95%
- music/sound 95%

Expected completion date: late 2021

[Bear in Venice]

Bear in Venice is a very short adventure game about a teddy bear's desire to ride a gondola.
I hesitate to call it a "real game", since it probably takes less than ten minutes to finish, but it's a completed game, so here it is.
This is my first game made with AGS, so it was a short practice project to begin with. It was a fun experience, and I'm writing a longer game at the moment.
