Hello,

I don't know if this is the correct category for this post type, and I'm sorry if I got it wrong.

I'm new to your community.
And I'm already experiencing a thorny problem before I've even had a chance to install pico-8.

Indeed, I'm running macOS 13.6.4 (Ventura), and I do my security updates regularly. As I prefer to trust XProtect sparingly, I've also installed a tool (CleanMyMac) that scans everything that comes in.

However, after purchasing a pico-8 license, I went to the download page I was offered and was unpleasantly surprised to be warned that a malware named AtomicStealer had just been detected on the pico-8_0.2.5g_osx.zip archive I had just downloaded (the one offered by default).

I tried downloading other versions (older ones and even the latest 0.2.6) but got the same alert (see screenshot below).

Going all the way back to version 0.2.4c, this one seems clean.

Has anyone encountered the same problem and notified the archive author?
Is there any other way of obtaining the latest stable, threat-free version?
