Thanks you, even if i was already aware of it, i personally check everything i download, as a developper myself. This include games on this site and saves.It's important to be cautious when sharing or using save files from the internet. Loading random save files that you find online can put your computer at risk of getting infected with harmful software. The developers of Ren'Py, the software used to build this game and many more, strongly advise against this practice. In the versions 7.6 and 8.1 of Ren'Py, a warning will pop up whenever you attempt to load a save file that isn't from your own computer. This warning exists because save files can contain code that runs when the file is opened.
Malicious software created using this technique can have serious consequences:
Notably, viruses developed using this method can affect various operating systems, including Android, MacOS, Linux, and Windows. This makes them a potential threat to a wide range of devices.
- It might gain access to, modify, or delete your files.
- It could potentially spy on you by activating your webcam or recording your keystrokes (keylogger).
- It may install additional harmful programs or viruses on your system.
- Your unencrypted passwords could be exposed.
- Your browser data could be accessed and stolen.
- It might spread to other files and programs, causing further infections.
- It could remain hidden from antivirus and malware detection software.
- Attackers might gain remote control of your computer.
- Your system could become unusable (bricked).
For a visual example, you can watch a presentation demonstrating a virus that resides within a Ren'Py save file here:You must be registered to see the links.
I suggest to add a system of chapters, this way, some would be able to review scenes/events, and others like me who lose saves may be able to skip some grind. I finished all the content from every characters, it would take hours to be back to this point
