It is most likely a false positive, but we're not taking any chances. Since the dev hasn't been online on the forums for over a day, I took the liberty to replace the launcher.exe file from the standalone with the one that came with the universal build, and replaced the links in OP. I only tested it for 5 minutes, but the game seems to be running fine, and the antiviruses doesn't go nuts over this launcher.exe.

I took a peak under the hood and didn't see anything that stood to me, but definitely better safe then sorry. Thanks for keeping us safe:cool:

fried_ was about to test it in a sandboxed environment, but decided to try the launcher from the universal build first, and it worked, so we decided to do a quick and easy fix instead of using more time on this case. All thanks goes to him for his quick thinking^^

Advise me pls - What classes are balanced for GG? Example - Is an Elf better an Archer or a Magician?

wow awesome job !
I cant wait for the full version. I had a lot of fun with what we already have and I practically broke the game every 20 minutes
Nothing a restart cant fix.
Speaking of which I totally missed where we get an auto save feature, and was very worried.. the first 4 hours :D

Great game.
Great potential.
Please explode with all your ideas !

Thank you

The resolution is all fucked up when I first boot the game. I can't even access the options menu because it's not on-screen.
Is there a config file somewhere for me to edit? Or a keyboard shortcut for fullscreen?

Okay guys, about resolution, malware, and some other things.

It IS false positive, windows defender sees self-extracting package with this code

system("start cmd /k jdk-windows\\bin\\java.exe -Djava.library.path=native/windows -Xss100M -Xms1G -Xmx6G -jar lewdmaze.jar");

and reacts to it as malware. As you can see its just Java launch command for game to run :)
It takes your Java, some native library files, and runs main game file "lewdmaze.jar" with some memory usage settings.
I'm not really sure how to fix it properly - basically, its triggered by game launcher being inside self-extracting package.
Universal is not triggering it, because its not packed with 7zip. And we cant really remove launcher...

Resolution is included into Save folder setting files, just delete them and it will grab default one.
Or, go for save folder settings.xml, open with wordpad or any text editor, and change
<screen fullscreen="false"/>
into
<screen fullscreen="true"/>
it should be enough to set it proper full screen for you, without borders.
If you have some kind of very specific monitor type, or maybe oldschool 4:3, it could be a problem~
Its pixel-based project and sprites really-really hate resizing.
I could try making specific setting for you in that case, but it will turn sprites into something less palatable, for sure.

About android version, you dont install it. You just run universal version.
Its Java based game project, so it can run on almost any platform - as long as you have Java64 installed properly.

Oh also i'm curious about breaking the game every 20 minutes, any specifics would help :)
Its buggy ofc so any info would help to fix stuff.

Yeah, no. I have a pretty standard 2560x1440 moniter. That's not the issue here. Your game just isn't resizing at all.
I set full-screen to 'true' but nothing changed.
I then tried changing the "Window X" and "window Y" values to my exact resolution, but it didn't make any diffrence.
I also changed them to 500 x 500, just to see what would happen.

As far as I can tell, settings.xml doesn't actually do anything. I'm getting exactly the same main-menu regardless of what I set it to, or whether that file is even present or not.

I even tried deleting the whole Save folder to reset it to default, but not only did that not change anything, it didn't even bother generating a new version of that folder when I booted the game back up.

Edit: Attached screenshots.
Edit2: I fucked with my system settings to get -50% UI scaling (which makes pretty much everything completely unusable) and that gave me access to the 'settings' menu, from which I could toggle Windowed mode, which allows me to resize the window, or just hit 'maximize' and have it actually be a proper functional size.

So I fixed it, but I had to fuck with my system in a way I didn't want to.
Having the game start in windowed mode by default would fix this, going forwards. Or just having the settings menu be higher up, I suppose.

... which is weird, actually, because that xml file definitely said 'fullscreen=false' but it was absolutely in fullscreen mode by default, which... explains why setting that value to 'true' didn't do anything, I guess.

So yeah, something's fucky with your Settings.XML file. It doesn't do what it's supposed to do.

Edit-yet-again:
Worked it out.

Your Save folder with the settings files in it isn't inside the same folder as the launcher.exe, so it doesn't fucking do anything.
It's inside the folder with the auto-extractor in it, and the extractor creates a sub-folder when you use it, so it so the game-launcher and the save-folder are on different layers.

Suggested solutions
A: pack the save folder into the lewdmaze_windows.exe auto-extractor, so that when you extract it puts them all in the same place.
Honestly i'm not sure why it was left out to begin with.

B: Remove the auto-extractor entirely, just pack the launcher and the jar and everything else you need into the original lewdmaze_0_7_153a_windows_standalone.7z archive that we're downloading from MEGA let us extract the game once and be done with it.

C: Just tell the self-extractor to extract into the folder that it's already in, instead of creating a subfolder and extracting there.

Granted, B might not be feasible. I don't understand why you did it in the first place, but i don't know fucking anything about Java.
I don't understand the point of having a self-extracting archive locked away inside a normal archive though.

Oh, and in the meantime. D: Just tell users to copy-paste the save folder into the correct folder.
Granted, that feels like a temporary solution.

Hmmm~

For some users, its pretty hard to install and setup Java64 properly, sometimes people getting issues with wrong versions, sometimes they install multiple version, sometimes they do stuff under very strict win-defender settings so Java is not getting registered, and so on.
So "standalone" version is basically install-and-play type of thing, it has already pre-installed Java package inside and allows to avoid some troubles. It was made specifically for that purpose~
If you dont have issues, its better to use normal Universal version, yes.

Save file outside is stuff with some quests already done and party preset~
I agree its kinda confusing, so maybe we should remove it completely, for now :unsure:

Meanwhile, 0.7.157a is out for Patrons.

-Elf x Leeches gameover CG added
-Added a bit more voice action for lewds, yay
-Fixed some issues with sounds, now they shouldn't repeat unnecessarily or play extra time without animation.
-Fixed a bit of issues with volume. Now you should be able to adjust music and sfx properly without issues.

Previous 0.7.97a is now public

New 0.7.99a is out for Patrons!

-Added succubus capture quest.
-Added Centaur x Catgirl finisher animation
-Added Goblins x Dwarf finisher animation.
Succubus quest currently added as "simple" repeatable quest.
We'll change that later on, currently its just for sake of repeatable access to new lewds~
Added some changes to Equip menu. Now it can show you preview on equipment numbers, like in proper rpgs. I think my color selection is bad thou, i will change it~
What exactly are these finisher animations and how do you trigger them?

Quick question : Haven't played this for a year and a half (Could be off by a good amount, I'm not particularly good when remembering WHEN stuff happened), is it worth checking back again, or will I experience like .. 10 minutes of actual new content?

Mmm. Well 2nd stage (forest) is almost done in terms of lewds, its missing like 1,5 animations i believe. Fap material is ready :D
So you will have liiiike 10 new animations and CGs?
But haven't finished in terms of gameplay (need to add grindy stuff, aka items to farm, materials, quests, substages with minibosses etc etc), which should be done next after lewds.
